This year the Champions League final will be held at the "Wanda Metropolitano" stadium, and this decision raises the hopes of fans of Madrid's "Atletico".
The capital's club narrowly missed triumph in the tournament in 2014 and 2016, so it is thought that finally it will be possible to fulfill an old dream in front of their own fans.
True, "Atletico" faced a strong opponent already in the Champions League quarterfinals and will compete against the Turin team "Juventus".
"The fact that the final will take place at our stadium gives the team and the fans even more motivation," said the club's leader Antoine Griezmann.
"There is always a great atmosphere here and that's exactly what we, as players, want. Playing decisive tournament matches at home would be a great celebration for everyone associated with 'Atletico'.
Of course, a difficult path awaits, but we will do our best to show all our abilities. We will do everything we can and it will be seen how the team will perform."
