Real attack, Karim Benzema gets the ball to Cristiano Ronaldo on the left, he dances inside and is about to pull the trigger when Dani Alves comes back and makes a great tackle to strip him of the ball.

At the other end Sergio Ramos, captain wind-up, has his first clash with Mario Mandzukic. Nothing given.

Real are passing the ball around much better and are stretching that Juventus back three.

Tony Pulis in the Champions League. Imagine.

Better from Real now as they keep the ball for a lengthy period, Marcelo and Dani Carvajal offering real width from full-back.

Sammiiee: I have a feeling this game will end in 90 mins. (2-1)

Mark A Notley: If Higuain can turn up then he'll be on the winning team in a big final for once. When it was Argentina vs Germany he didn't.

Paul Summers: If you blur your eyes slightly, West Brom are all over Real Madrid!

Unfortunately, Tony Pulis's side won't be getting their hands on the Champions League...

The first 15 minutes have whistled by. Only one chance though.

Juve have conceded three goals all season in the Champions League. If they score first...

Karim Benzema is whistled for a handball in the area after he had done well to chest the ball down originally. As soon as he took it down though he was accosted by Leo Bonucci and Giorgio Chiellini. A couple of bouncers.

Paulo Dybala knew he had got on the wrong side of Toni Kroos. There was a little trip. Real Madrid have to get a feel of the ball.

Real go long this time, trying to ping the ball in to Cristiano Ronaldo behind the defence, Giorgio Chiellini is on him though and just eases him out. Strength.

Juve touching 57% of possession in the opening 10 minutes, as Paulo Dybala goes into the book for a cynical trip on Toni Kroos.

Juventus look very, very sharp. They have far more options than Madrid at this moment in time. Their players want the ball and they're very quick.

No sitting back from Juve. They have made a razor-sharp start. All crisp passing, fierce tackling and ominous intent.

It's their fans making all the noise at the moment.

Paulo Dybala, hats off sir. A pirouetted backheel which nutmegs a man in purple.

Yes please.

Juve the better side so far without a doubt. But Cristiano Ronaldo was quiet for large periods against Bayern Munich and Atletico and still scored about 11 goals.

He has barely had a touch - one so far in fact.

It was absolutely brilliant play by Dani Alves whipping the ball in. What a magnificent save by Keylor Navas. Juve have been much, much sharper. Real haven't got into the game.

Tom John: The fairytale final is the old man, Buffon, saving in the penalty shootout to win it for the Old Lady, Juve.

Fabian Pavez The Dre: It's Martyrs Day here in Uganda; So who will be a Martyr in Cardiff Tonight.. I reckon Juveeeee.

Mario Mandzukic may be the most unlikely left winger of all time but he was outstanding there against Barcelona and he puts in a testing cross again, it's nodded out and Miralem Pjanic cracks in a shot from about 25 yards. A really sweet hit, sailing a few inches off the turf, and Keylor Navas has to make a cracking one-handed save. Pushes it clear as well.

Juve looking slick. Really slick.

Nice play from Real this time, Isco dropping deep again to conjure and conduct but as soon as the ball gets anywhere near the Juve goal that back three just close it down and see it out.

Juventus are passing the ball around with real intent. They've got the better of this game so far.

Gonzalo Higuain has a point to prove against his old club and he gets away from a defender and snaps a shot off from 25 yards, loads of power but arrowed at Keylor Navas, who spills it but is able to regain it.

Isco, drifting in space behind the Real front two, gets on the ball but is quickly shut down by Sami Khedira.

I know finals are often a let down but there are so many good players out there that it has to be good tonight.

Gonzalo Higuain has the first effort on goal but his header is easy for Keylor Navas.

Dani Alves quickly snapping into a tackle, spell of Juve possession loudly jeered by the Real fans, Luka Modric then chopped down.

Fierce start.
