Gareth Bale scored twice including a sublime overhead kick against Liverpool to hand Real Madrid their third consecutive Champions League trophy

Cristiano Ronaldo has scored 120 goals more than any other player in the UEFA Champions League

Gareth Bale says he will have talks with his agent this summer about his Real Madrid future after being named as a substitute in the Champions League final win over Liverpool.

Bale, 28, scored two goals as Real won 3-1 in Kiev to be crowned champions of Europe for a record 13th time.

However, Bale said he was disappointed not to have started the final.

“I need to be playing week in, week out, and that’s not happened this season,” Bale told BT Sport.

Wales forward Bale scored a stunning overhead volley after Sadio Mane had cancelled out Karim Benzema’s opener, which was gifted by a terrible mistake from Liverpool keeper Loris Karius.

“It was beautiful to be at Real Madrid. The future of any Madrid player is not important; we have just made history.”

When asked to clarify why he spoke about being at Real Madrid in the past tense, Ronaldo added: “I don’t have any doubts, it’s not important.

“I have to rest now, go and meet up with the Portugal team [before the World Cup] and in the next few weeks [I’ll make an announcement].”
