Former Liverpool striker Michael Owen has doubled down on his assertion that the Reds are the best team in Europe, despite their Champions League final defeat.
The England international, who also played for the Spanish club, had backed Liverpool to claim victory before kick-off. However, after a Vinicius Jr goal and a string of saves from Thibaut Courtois, Carlo Ancelotti's side were the ones celebrating a famous win.
Owen stuck to his guns after the final whistle, prompting "disrespect" claims from fellow pundit Rio Ferdinand. Even after sleeping on it, the 42-year-old has refused to back down.
