Manager Jurgen Klopp believes winning his first trophy with Liverpool is only the beginning and the squad he has assembled has its best years still to come.
The club's sixth European Cup – a tally bettered only by Real Madrid (13) and AC Milan (seven) was secured with a 2-0 win over Tottenham in the Spanish capital.
For Klopp it ended a run of six final defeats but, more importantly, for the majority of the players it was their first senior trophy after losing the final to Real Madrid 12 months ago.
