Gareth Bale helped Real Madrid win their 10th European Cup as they finally overwhelmed arch-rivals Atletico Madrid in a compelling Champions League final in Lisbon.
The emphatic scoreline after extra time does no justice to the drama that unfolded at Estadio da Luz as Atletico stood moments from winning the trophy for the first time only to end exhausted and well beaten.
Real Madrid left it till late before they could find an equalizer, Atletico had to hold on for just another 90 seconds to deny Real Madrid La decima. But after Real drew level with a fantastic header by Sergio Ramos, the game was all over.
Extra time goals from Gareth Bale, Marcelo and Cristiano Ronaldo buried the hopes of Atletico getting close to the European trophy.
