Tottenham vs Liverpool player ratings: Alisson excels as Champions League Final comes too soon for Harry Kane

Liverpool's 2018-19 season came to an unforgettable conclusion as Mohamed Salah and Divock Origi fired Jurgen Klopp's men to Champions League glory against Tottenham.

Thousands descended on Madrid for a legacy-defining encounter at the end of a scarcely-believable continental campaign, with both sides narrowly making it through the group stage and then completing jaw-dropping semi-final wins.

But only one could emerge triumphant at the Wanda Metropolitano and Liverpool would be crowned champions of Europe for a sixth time as Salah's early spot-kick was followed by a strike from semi-final hero in a 2-0 win.

Mauricio Pochettino's players dropped to the deck as the red hordes went wild at full-time as Klopp ended his cup final hoodoo to win his first trophy as manager of the club and ease the hurt of missing out on the Premier League title.

Champions League glory also helped put last year's final loss in Kiev behind them.

Here are how the players fared in Madrid...
