It looks like congratulations are in order for Liverpool Football Club, who appear to have wrapped up their sixth Champions League title without even having to play the final.
As per the updated tournament fixture list on UEFA’s official website, the Reds have seemingly been given a goodbye against Real Madrid in the final to be automatically crowned champions of Europe once again.
Err… guess congratulations are in order, @LFC? #UEFA pic.twitter.com/ArZ2J30qho

Up above the semifinal results at the very top of the page, UEFA have erroneously declared Jurgen Klopp’s side to be overall winners of the 2017-18 competition.
Which, in fairness, seems a little harsh on Real. After all, were they really that unconvincing over two legs against Bayern Munich in the previous round?
All in all, it’s just a bit of a shame that we won’t be getting a Champions League final this year.
We were really quite looking forward to watching it.
