## Match[edit]

### Officials[edit]

Italian referee Gianluca Rocchi was announced as the referee by UEFA on 20 July 2017.[2]

### Summary[edit]

In the 16th minute, Casemiro headed against the bar after a corner from the left-hand side by Toni Kroos, before opening the scoring eight minutes later with a left-footed strike after a pass into the box from Dani Carvajal.[13] Isco made it 2–0 in the 52nd minute when he side-footed the ball into the bottom corner of the net from six yards after a pass from Gareth Bale. In the 61st minute, Bale hit the bar with a shot from the right of the penalty area. Romelu Lukaku pulled a goal back for Manchester United a minute later when he followed up on an initial shot from Nemanja Matić, which was parried back into his path by Keylor Navas.[14]

### Details[edit]

The Champions League winners were designated as the "home" team for administrative purposes.
