Africa's top Champions League final moments - Drogba, Salah, Eto'o, Mendy and Abedi Pele

Liverpool will face Real Madrid in the Champions League final on Saturday in a repeat of the clash from 2018 which saw the Spanish giants triumph.

Salah suffered a shoulder injury which forced him off before half-time during that meeting four years ago in Kyiv. Senegal forward Sadio Mane equalised for Liverpool after they went 1-0 down, but Real eventually won 3-1.

Twelve months on, the African pair helped Liverpool win Europe's premier club prize, beating Tottenham 2-0 in 2019.

As Mane and Salah - along with Cameroon defender Joel Matip and Guinea midfielder Naby Keita - look to seal Liverpool's seventh European crown, BBC Sport Africa looks back on six of the continent's best Champions League final moments since the competition was rebranded in 1992.
