The final, which is the most-watched annual sporting event in the world, was played at the National Stadium of Wales in Cardiff on Saturday 3rd June and was aired in more than 220 markets. Football fans in the stadium and around the world enjoyed a fantastic and upbeat performance just moments before holders Real Madrid took on Juventus in the showpiece fixture of the European club football calendar.

"We're planning on harnessing the excitement of the fans in the stadium, and all those tuning in to the UEFA Champions League final," said will.i.am of The Black Eyed Peas. "As football fans ourselves, we know how much this game means to those watching from the stands, their homes and with friends. This performance means just as much to us. We're planning an unforgettable show."
