The 2024 UEFA Champions League final is set.

Borussia Dortmund — currently sitting in fifth place in the German Bundesliga standings — reached the final after eliminating Paris Saint-Germain, which clinched the French Ligue 1 title for a third consecutive season.
Real Madrid scored twice late — with second-half substitute Joselu netting both goals — after going down a goal in the second leg of the semifinal against Bayern Munich to advance to its 18th UEFA Champions League final. Real Madrid already has clinched the La Liga title for this season.
