Luka Modric could pick up his fifth Champions League winners' medal on Saturday night, matching the number of times Cristiano Ronaldo has won it.
He could easily have left the club the same year as the Portuguese but Madrid resisted his attempts to move to Inter Milan and they've been congratulating themselves on insisting he stayed ever since.
It felt like the end of an era after Real Madrid beat Liverpool in Kiev. Ronaldo said he was off in his post-match interview and Zinedine Zidane was not far behind him.
