Liverpool may have an advantage. It's called neuro11
A small team that takes care of the mental strength of athletes. For free kicks, corner kicks and penalty shoot-outs, they help every player to have control over his emotions. They work with Klopp and the first successes are two finals and 17 of 18 successful penalties. In the League Cup final against Chelsea 11:10 everyone scored and in the FA Cup 6:5, here only one missed. It looks like it's working.
I don't think this final will require both teams to decide victory on penalties, although it's possible but I really don't expect it to happen. But I have doubts about that. I didn't expect the final to result in a lot of goals even though it looks like both teams can score. Liverpool have hopes of winning the match, so do Real Madrid but if I had to choose then I think Liverpool looked more deserving of the favourites tonight.
Liverpool is giving the best that they can give to win this Champions League final. I also believe that they are the more deserving team. But if we look at what Real Madrid have done to reach the finals we certainly have to say Real Madrid also deserves the Champions League trophy. I actually think this match might go to extra time and penalties. But I personally don't want this match to reach penalties. I believe penalties will not be the optimal solution and proof of which team is better. I think Liverpool will break the deadlock and we might have some late match surprise again from Real Madrid.
