Mohamed Salah, Liverpool to Face Cristiano Ronaldo, Real Madrid in UCL Final

Liverpool will play Real Madrid in the UEFA Champions League final despite slipping to a 4-2 defeat to Roma on Wednesday. Two late goals from Radja Nainggolan secured victory for the hosts on the night, but Liverpool progress 7-6 on aggregate.

The Reds got off to the perfect start with Sadio Mane firing them ahead after just nine minutes but were pegged back quickly by a freak James Milner own goal.

Georginio Wijnaldum restored Liverpool's lead on 26 minutes with his first-ever goal away from home for the Reds, before Edin Dzeko levelled in the second half for the hosts.
