The 2024 UEFA Champions League final is set.
And it will feature a classic David vs. Goliath showdown between a team not many expected to advance this far (Borussia Dortmund) against one that has claimed the most UEFA Champions League trophies in history (Real Madrid).
Borussia Dortmund — currently sitting in fifth place in the German Bundesliga standings — reached the final after eliminating Paris Saint-Germain, which clinched the French Ligue 1 title for a third consecutive season.
Real Madrid scored twice late — with second-half substitute Joselu netting both goals — after going down a goal in the second leg of the semifinal against Bayern Munich to advance to its 18th UEFA Champions League final. Real Madrid already has clinched the La Liga title for this season.
