Real Madrid have saint and sinner combo of virtuous Varane and rash Ramos

This Champions League final is all about two great attacks: two sides with the ability to blitz opponents in a matter of minutes.

At least that’s what we’ve been told repeatedly over the past couple of weeks.

In Spain, France and Italy journalists love to christen teams with the names of attacking trios, so this is the match of the BBC – Benzema, Bale, Cristiano – versus MSF (Mane, Salah, Firmino rather than Medecins Sans Frontieres).
