It is the ultimate showdown. Come Sunday morning, 2.45am Singapore time, the Estadio da Luz in Lisbon, Portugal, will see Real Madrid duke it out against Atletico Madrid in the Champions League final.
It is the culmination of a long journey for both city rivals in Europe's elite footballing tournament, with each looking to create their own history.
