Champions League Final 2014: 6 things we learned from Real Madrid's win over Atletic

Real won their 10th European Cup with a dramatic win over their arch rivals, but what did we learn from the game?

6. Horse placenta doesn't work after all



Stocks in horse placenta plummet after Diego Costa's magical comeback lasts just nine minutes (or was it mind games from Diego Simeone? Either way, didn't pay off)


5. Jose was right about Casillas

Mourinho took a lot of flak for dropping the Spanish international during his time as Real boss and after his howler for the opening goal, maybe he was right all along!

4. Gareth Bale picks his moments



The Welshman was a shadow of himself this season, missed a massive one-on-one in the first half and countless other chances later on...but still popped up with a crucial goal.

3. Atleti don't like Angel Di Maria



Of the seven Atletico players booked on the night, three of them were for fouls on the Argentinean winger. Wonder what he did to deserve that?

2. Simeone needs anger management



Ok, we sort of knew this one already, but the Atleti boss couldn't contain his displeasure at the referee and stormed the pitch after Real's fourth goal. Chill man!


1. Football is pretty bloody awesome



Football is just great isn't it? We knew this anyway but just confirming it. *group hug*
