REAL MADRID had special shirts designed to celebrate their win over Bayern Munich.
The Spanish giants were so confident of reaching the Champions League final the shirts were ready for the players at the full-time whistle.
Real Madrid secured a 2-1 second leg victory to advance to next month’s final at Wembley Stadium on Wednesday night.
A brace from substitute Joselu snatched the win, with Bayern’s rivals Borussia Dortmund awaiting in London.
At the end of the match, the Real Madrid stars changed into special shirts with the message “A por la 15” printed on the back.
The message means “Go for 15” in English, referencing the club’s aim to win their 15th Champions League this season.
