Barcelona Beats Juventus for Champions League Title

Barcelona 3-1 Juventus UEFA Champions


Barcelona triumphed over fellow European giants Juventus in a superb Champions League final on Saturday that was the perfect antidote to the stench coming out of Zurich in the wake of the FIFA corruption scandal.

Barca's dazzling attacking play and Juve's resilience, which kept them in the game until Neymar wrapped up a 3-1 win in stoppage time, recalled the free-scoring early years of the competition in the 1950s and 1960s and provided a wonderful finale to the 60th season of UEFA's flagship club competition.
  • Barcelona win fifth UEFA Champions League title   
  •  Goals from Ivan Rakitic, Luis Suarez and Neymar won the game for Barca
  • Neymar scored with the last kick of the game to seal Barcelona victory
  • Barcelona have now won the Champions League four times in ten years
