Just like last year, the multiplex of the final day of the Champions League gave us a completely crazy evening. Between bizarre goals, records, and wild scenarios… here are the insane moments you missed last night.
Trubin scores a “screamer” in front of a priest 😭
Clearly, Anatolyi Trubin made everyone’s heart race, both in good and bad ways.

While he was speaking live on Portuguese TV about the storms, this Portuguese priest was startled by shouts of joy coming from backstage after the Benfica goalkeeper’s crucial goal against Real Madrid (4-2). The poor guy got quite a scare.
Gyökeres’ big miss 🥶
Fortunately, Arsenal didn’t need that to win against Kairat Almaty (3-2). While Viktor Gyökeres had the luxury of scoring the first goal, he also stood out with a huge miss that was worth 0.81 expected goals.
Bayern plays in goalkeeper shorts 😳
Sitting in front of your TV, you probably thought Bayern’s kit against PSV looked very strange… Well, that’s because the outfield players from Bayern were wearing their goalkeepers’ shorts.

The reason? Eindhoven plays in black shorts and a red and white shirt. So the Munich team had to get creative and quickly reused the goalkeepers’ shorts.
Guardiola thanks Mourinho 🤣
Thanks to Benfica’s win over Real Madrid (4-2), Manchester City was able to secure their ticket to the Top 8 of the Champions League. After the match, Pep Guardiola didn’t miss the chance to thank José Mourinho.
We found R9 (or not) ☠️
Even though Villarreal once again sank in the Champions League with a 3-0 defeat to Leverkusen, the Spanish club can take comfort in the fact that we’ll probably remember this fan and his Ronaldo Nazario-inspired haircut even more.

Even though his team was soundly beaten by FC Barcelona (4-1), Viktor Dadason had an emotional moment.
Scoring in just the fourth minute, the Copenhagen striker became the youngest player ever to score at Camp Nou in the Champions League.
At 17 years and 212 days old, he broke Paulo Ferrario’s record, set in November 1959 with Milan, according to Opta.
The blunder (or troll) from Club Brugge 🥶
After crushing OM and securing their spot in the playoff round, Club Brugge wanted to be nice by displaying a message on the stadium’s giant screens congratulating OM for reaching the next round.
But here’s the thing: Benfica’s match wasn’t over yet, and Anatoliy Trubin came along to spoil the nice gesture. Brutal.
