Champions League final, Tottenham 0-2 Liverpool: 5 Key stats

#4 Tottenham have never taken a lead in the first half in the Champions League this season

It was not the first time Spurs failed to take the lead in the first half in the Champions League this season. In fact, the north London outfit have never taken a lead in the first half of their entire 2018-19 Champions League campaign. It's exactly the opposite for the Reds, who have grasped the lead in the first half in all of their Champions League wins this season.

#3 Liverpool became the first side since 2010 to win the final with less possession than the opposition

Though Liverpool defeated Tottenham Hotspurs in the final, the statistics favoured the runners-up.
