Champions League team of the season 2017/18: Independent Sport's best XI from Europe's elite club competition

The Champions League final is upon us, with Real Madrid and Liverpool playing off for glory in Kiev on Saturday night.

But who have been the stars that most lit up this incredible season of football at Europe's top table?

Well, as you might expect there are plenty of representatives from Real Madrid and Liverpool FC in the XI - which was chosen by Independent Sport writers.

Cristiano Ronaldo obviously makes the cut with an absolutely absurd 15 goals in this season's edition of the Champions League.

But he's also joined by players from Seville and Rome, among other European football hotspots.
