Best Tweets: Karim Benzema’s big night for Real Madrid

Dortmund scored 21 goals in their group campaign, the most for any team in a group stage in the history of the tournament. What’s more, they’d already done the same in the teams’ first Group F meeting. But Zidane has insisted that the Champions League winners will make every effort to win the game as they want to top their group.

Monaco has secured first place and Bayer Leverkusen is guaranteed second, but Tottenham needs at least a draw against CSKA Moscow at Wembley Stadium to finish third and earn a spot in the Europa League.

“I don’t want Juventus for a couple of reasons”, he said, per Marca. We will not over think things, just play the game with intensity and try to finish first.

Dortmund will be coming into the game on the back of a thumping 4-1 victory over Bundesliga rivals Borussia Monchedgladbag. “That feeling of being in the game remained with us thereafter”. You need to carry on right to the end.

It was Higuain’s first goal since scoring on November 2 against Lyon. “I will analyse the game coolly and we will look at it”.

“Zizou has that kind of magic that dazzles you”, Real captain Sergio Ramos said of Zidane. “They’ve got to take some credit for what the team is achieving”. “We now have a final to play and to win”.

Attackers: Cristiano Ronaldo, Benzema, Morata and Lucas Vázquez.

“The fans are demanding, for sure, but the Bernabeu is like that”, Zidane said. We worked hard for it.

And that miss proved costly as Aubameyang stormed past Sergio Ramos and produced the flawless cross for Reus to slide home the equaliser.

But Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang struck with his 19th goal of the season to give the visitors hope before Benzema was denied a hat-trick when hero of the night Reus cleared his header off the line. Karim had the fortune that his teammates helped to put him in a good position to score. “We’re playing and happy with the results we’re having lately but we know that the road is still very long”, he said.

Atletico were to play Brazilian club Chapecoense in the final, but the plane carrying the Brazilian team to the game crashed, killing nearly all onboard.
