Last season came to a close with an all-English final between Tottenham and Liverpool after some intense quarter- and semi finals. Liverpool came out with a 2-0 victory, after a penalty goal by Salah in the second minute and a goal by Origi in the last minutes of the match.
This was the second all-English final in history of the Champions League, and Liverpool’s 6th title. The team is also one of the favourites to claim the 2019/20 title – second only to Manchester City.
