Tottenham will face off against Liverpool tonight at an all-English final in Madrid. This is the first match of its kind since the 1971-1972 European Cup. England will gain a trophy, either way, this year, and will break a decades-long Champion’s League dry spell for both Tottenham and Liverpool. Liverpool’s last English league title was in 1990, and Spurs’ last Champion’s League win was in 1961, when it was still named the European Cup, meaning this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for many fans.
