It appeared Sergio Ramos was up to his best shithouse tactics last night, though new footage shows Juan Cuadrado clearly stamping on him.
In the past two Champions League finals that Real Madrid have won, last season and in 2014, Ramos made the headlines for all the right reasons.
In 2014 he scored the most important goal of the game, equalising in the 93rd minute to take the game into extra time when all looked loss for Los Blancos.

Last year Ramos opened the scoring early on before Atletico Madrid took the match to penalties where the captain then scored in the shoot-out.
With the game already at 3-1 and Juan Cuadrado on a yellow card, the Juve player ran past Ramos for a throw in and appeared to barely nudge him which took Real's captain to the floor.
