Pepe calls on Real to continue making history

Los Blancos go in search of an 11th European Cup on Saturday and the Portuguese has urged his teammates to etch their name into club folklore with victory over Atletico Madrid.

Pepe has called on his teammates to add to Real Madrid's remarkable history by securing victory in Saturday's Champions League final.

Real faces city rival Atletico Madrid in the showdown at the San Siro, the second time the two clubs have met in the final in three seasons.

Under Carlo Ancelotti, Real triumphed 4-1 after extra time in Lisbon in 2014 as the club sealed 'La Decima' - a 10th European Cup crown - and an 11th on Saturday would see the club move four clear of AC Milan on the all-time list.
