Real Madrid extended their European dominance with a 15th Champions League victory last night thanks to goals from Dani Carvajal and Vinicius Jr as they defeated Borussia Dortmund 2-0. But the flagship event was marred by ugly scenes before kick-off as some fans charged towards the iconic stadium and attempted to enter via the 'Club Wembley' entrance, before being pushed back and turned away by security. Shortly after kick-off, a series of pitch invaders then ran across the turf unchallenged, forcing a halt in play. One even managed to stop to take a selfie with a bemused Vinicius Jr. The Metropolitan Police has insisted there was a 'robust policing operation' in place and revealed that 53 arrests were made - five for pitch invasion and the 'majority of others' for attempts to breach security. The troublemakers were wearing T-shirts promoting 'Mellstroy', a controversial Russian vlogger who is rumoured to have offered pitch invaders £300,000 to anyone who would storm the turf in his name, according to reports on social media.

Real Madrid claimed a record-extending 15th Champions League last night thanks to goals from Dani Carvajal and Vinicius Jr as they defeated Borussia Dortmund 2-0. But the event was soured for some prior to kick-off when fans were seen charging towards the iconic London stadium and attempting to enter via the 'Club Wembley' entrance, before being pushed back and turned away by security. A series of pitch invaders then ran across the turf unchallenged in the early minutes of the match, forcing a halt in play. One of the people who ran on to the pitch stopped to take a selfie with Real Madrid star Vinicius Junior in what appeared to be an online dare with a cash reward up for grabs. Then, following the full-time whistle, exclusive footage obtained by MailOnline appears to show fans streaming past security guards to make their way into the stadium via a side entrance as the trophy ceremony was underway. These lapses came despite a £5million ring of steel defence being put in place by the Football Association to avoid a repeat of England's Euro 2020 day of shame. That final - held in 2021 having been delayed due to the Covid-19 pandemic - saw ticketless fans storming the gates to gain access to the stadium.
CHAMPIONS LEAGUE FINAL PLAYER RATINGS: Jude Bellingham endured his WORST display for Real Madrid on the biggest stage - but which Dortmund star was superb and didn't deserve to lose?

Real Madrid lifted the Champions League trophy for the 15th time after beating Borussia Dortmund 2-0 at Wembley. Dani Carvajal was the unlikely hero for the LaLiga giants after heading home from Toni Kroos' corner before Vinicius Junior tucked in the decisive second goal. Dortmund had carved out a number of golden openings in a pulsating first half but both Karim Adeyemi and Niclas Fullkrug were guilty of glaring misses. Madrid were afforded more space after the breakthrough and Vinicius capitalised on a sloppy Ian Maatsen error to finish coolly beyond Gregor Kobel. Here, Mail Sport's CRAIG HOPE has rated the players...

Gregor Kobel, a goalkeeper for Borussia Dortmund, scored a calamitous own goal on Saturday, giving Bayern Munich the lead in a top-of-the-table Bundesliga match. With the game goalless after 12 minutes, Kobel came out to clear a long-range pass from Dayot Upamecano but scuffed his clearance in a dramatic manner. The harmless ball rolled into the goal behind him, but the 25-year-old, who has been a key player for Dortmund over the past two seasons, still had his head in his hands.
