Real Madrid hero Gareth Bale says he knew Liverpool's players were beaten before kickoff for the 2018 Champions League final.

Bale revealed Liverpool's players confessed they were too nervous to sleep on the eve of the Kyiv clash.

"I remember talking to Liverpool players before the first Champions League final in which we faced each other," Bale said in an interview with BT Sport.

"It was hard for them to sleep, they were nervous...we had a different mentality.

"We only thought of winning, and even more so in a final, despite the fact that they arrived playing better than us."
