The game – 2014, Atletico Madrid vs Real Madrid
Trending
The story – Real Madrid were on their hunt for La Decima, their 10th Champions League title. They were the favourites by far and met underdogs Atletico, who had just wrapped up their first La Liga title in 18 years.
In a nail biting, end to end game Atletico took the lead through Diego Godin in the 36th minute and held on for 90 minutes. As the five minutes of added time began, they were two minutes away from a historic double, when the unthinkable happened.
Deep into added time (90+3’), Luka Modric took a precise corner kick into the Atletico box and Real centre-back Sergio Ramos met the flighted ball with aggression and headed the ball powerfully into the Atletico net.
Real equalised in the dying minutes of the game and took the final into extra time. Atletico were completely shattered by Ramos’ goal and succumbed in the next 30 minutes to Los Blancos who put another three past them. That Ramos goal went down in history as the goal that brought Real level and resulted in La Decima. Unbelievable.
