When Real Madrid lifted the Champions League trophy on May 28, 2016, the talk was over whether they could be the first team to maintain the title in the competition's modern iteration.
Not only did they achieve that, but Friday marked 1,000 days of Real retaining the title of European champions.
The Madrid giants have won the cup for the last three seasons, and remain firmly in the hint for a fourth straight crown this campaign.
