Real Madrid triumphs Champions League, as fans tear-gassed outside
Real Madrid are the Champions of Europe, with a 1-0 win over Liverpool in the UEFA Champion’s League final
Madrid have clinched their 14th title, making them the highest club to do so.
It was a nail-biting game. Liverpool dominated the match but was persistently met with a defensive wall from the Spaniards.
Making it impossible for them to score.
However, it all came down to the man of the match, Madrid’s goalkeeper, Thibaut Courtois who consistently made stellar saves.
This helped Madrid to eventually make a break and snap a goal to secure them the lead.
Madrid’s fans screamed with joy as they claimed their 14th Champions League trophy.

Liverpool chaos
The match also came with its own drama outside of the pitch. The final was delayed for 30 minutes, amid chaotic scenes outside the Paris Stade de France stadium.
Large crowds were stuck outside the gates in the build-up to the game, leaving many confused and angry. Liverpool fans were tear-gassed and unable to enter the stadium, while Real Madrid fans poured into their seats.
UEFA has since put the blame on fans who purchased ‘fake’ tickets but did not specify from which team the fans were from.
“In the lead-up to the game, the turnstiles at the Liverpool end became blocked by thousands fans who had purchased fake tickets which did not work in the turnstiles.
This created a build-up of fans trying to get in. As a result, the kick off was delayed by 35 minutes to allow as many fans as possible with genuine tickets to gain access.
As numbers outside the stadium continued to build up after kick off, the police dispersed them with tear gas and forced them away from the stadium.
UEFA is sympathetic to those affected by these events and will further review these matters urgently together with the French police and authorities, and with the French Football Federation.
UEFA STATEMENT
Liverpool has now called for a formal investigation into the treatment of its fans.
“We are hugely disappointed at the stadium entry issues and breakdown of the security perimeter that Liverpool fans faced this evening at Stade de France.
This is the greatest match in European football and supporters should not have to experience the scenes we have witnessed tonight.
We have officially requested a formal investigation into the causes of these unacceptable issues.”

U.S. pushes Ukraine toward controversial peace plan with Russia
US pressures Ukraine to accept a peace plan risking territory loss amid ongoing conflict with Russia.
US pressures Ukraine to accept a peace plan risking territory loss amid ongoing conflict with Russia.
The United States is pressuring Ukraine to accept a peace plan that would see the country surrender territory and military equipment as part of a negotiated settlement with Russia. The proposal has sparked concern within Kyiv over the potential loss of sovereignty and long-term security.
President Volodymyr Zelenskiy is in Turkey discussing this plan, which may also involve cuts to Ukraine’s armed forces. His visit comes as Washington intensifies efforts under the Trump administration to secure an end to the conflict, despite fears the terms could undermine Ukraine’s national interests.
As Russian forces continue their aggressive campaign, holding roughly 19% of Ukrainian territory, Zelenskiy is attempting to revive peace talks before winter further complicates the frontline. The stakes remain high as the geopolitical landscape shifts.

Senate upholds vote to release Epstein files despite White House delay attempt; Trump signals intent to sign bill.
The White House tried to delay a vote on the release of Justice Department files connected to Jeffrey Epstein, even as former President Trump insisted there was nothing to hide.
Despite this, the Senate approved the measure exactly as it passed the House, ignoring amendments proposed by Trump’s aides. This move clears the path for the files to be made public in full.
Trump has indicated he intends to sign the bill, marking a significant shift after the White House’s attempt to block or delay the vote proved unsuccessful. The decision could have wide-reaching implications for transparency and ongoing investigations.
