Ex-Red Ronaldo handed the Champions League holders the lead as he turned home a stunning Gareth Bale shot, before completing his brace with a drilled shot.

“He made it easy for me tonight,” said the Scotsman, on selecting Ronaldo.

Real's victory saw them win the trophy for the second time. It is a competiton Sir Alex and United have won once, beating Red Star Belgrade in 1991.
