THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE FINAL: KROOS VS. REUS. This Saturday, two German legends play their final games for their respective clubs on the biggest stage in European football...the Champions League Final. And on the season finale of European Nights, Rog and Rory preview that epic clash by deep diving into the respective careers of Real Madrid's Toni Kroos and Dortmund's Marco Reus. The narratives surrounding these two gents could hardly be more different: Kroos, the ageless, effortless maestro with a cabinet full of trophies looking for one more taste of glory with Los Blancos. And Reus, the electric former wunderkind, hoping to enact revenge for a career snakebitten by injuries and BVB second-place finishes. Two men enter, but only one can leave victorious. All this and more on the latest European Nights... See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
