“It’s time for Real Madrid’s streak to end” – Dortmund coach Edin Terzic

Borussia Dortmund head coach Edin Terzic is optimistic that his team can give a run for their money to Real Madrid in the UEFA Champions League final. The summit clash will be played at the Wembley Stadium on Saturday.

Meanwhile, Real Madrid are a force to reckon with in the UCL, having won the title on a record-breaking 14 occasions. The Los Blancos have lost only three UCL finals in 1962, 1964 and 1981. In the last nine years, the La Liga champions have won four titles in the UCL.

There is no doubt that Borussia Dortmund will have their work cut against Real Madrid and they will need to bring their A-game in the final.

“It’s time for Real Madrid’s streak, 8 games & 8 wins in finals, to end,” Terzic said (via Madrid Xtra).

Meanwhile, Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund have faced each other on 14 occasions, with the former winning six matches whereas the latter coming out victorious in three games.

On the other hand, Real Madrid captain Nacho Fernandez has set his sights on the sixth UCL title with the club and match legendary Paco Gento’s tally.

“A number of my team-mates and I are just one step away from equalling Gento and we’re really eager to please madridismo and ourselves. The decade we’ve lived through has been incredible, I’m fortunate to be the captain of this team,” Fernandez said in an interview with Real Madrid TV (via Tribal Football).

“I want to thank you for the support you’ve shown throughout the season. We’re just one step away from lifting the most special trophy for this club and we’re going to give our all on the pitch,” he added.

Real Madrid’s talisman midfielder Toni Kroos will also play his final match for the club as he has announced his retirement.
