Defender Sergio Ramos has also popped up with multiple Champions League final goals.

Real Madrid are known as the Kings of Europe for their absolute dominance in the UEFA Champions League. They won this year’s Champions League final and secured their 15th trophy, eight more than AC Milan’s tally.

The Italian team are second in the list of the most UCLs won by any club. Los Blancos defeated Borussia Dortmund by a 2-0 scoreline at Wembley Stadium to win the 2023-24 title. They had their fair share of luck in the first half as Dortmund missed some serious goal-scoring opportunities.

However, as they have done multiple times, they came back strongly in the second half courtesy of a goal from Dani Carvajal and another from Vinicius Junior. Dortmund looked threatening and the best side throughout the first half.

However, as they say, you should take the opportunities against a side like Real Madrid and that too on a UCL final night or you will have to repent late. As fate would have it, they had to repent, as Dortmund’s magical campaign in the UCL 2023-24 came to a sad end without any silverware!

Now, in this article, let us take a look at the five players who have scored multiple goals for Real Madrid in the UCL finals.

5. Vinicius Junior (2 goals)

Vinicius Junior, the best player for Real Madrid, and also in the world this season has scored two goals for his club in the UCL finals. He has been sensational and the main attacking threat for the Los Blancos side this season.

He stepped up once again in the final, against Dortmund, and scored the decisive goal at the end to close the match for his team. Vinicius had also scored a goal in the 2-1 win of Real Madrid in the UCL 2021-22 final against Liverpool.

3. Sergio Ramos (2 goals)

Real Madrid’s eternal captain and one of the greatest defenders of all time, has scored two goals in the UCL final. We all know that the Spaniard has a knack for scoring goals in the most important moments.

Sergio Ramos did that once for Real Madrid in that famous Champions League win in 2014 against local rivals Atlético Madrid. His team was trailing by one goal in the 92nd minute and then came a beautiful header from a corner kick, which flew past Thibaut Courtois into the net. He once again scored against Colchoneros in the UCL final in 2016.

2. Gareth Bale (3 goals)

Gareth Bale is another superstar who has stood up whenever there has been pressure on Real Madrid. He has managed to score three Champions League final goals during his time at Real Madrid.

He then managed to score two goals in the UCL final in 2018 against Liverpool.

1. Cristiano Ronaldo ( 3 goals)
