At the Bernabéu, it was necessary to wait until the start of the second half for the home team to take the lead on the scoreboard: the ball was received in the centre of the pitch by Tchouaméni , who found Rodrygo in depth, with the Brazilian winger assisting the French star for 1-0 in the 46th minute.

Rudiger also headed the ball to reassure the home fans and, after a perfect corner from Modric , put Real Madrid back in the lead with less than 10 minutes left in the match.
In the 90+5′ minute, young Endrick filled himself with courage and ran several meters up the field to make it 3-1. A fantastic execution outside the area by the 18-year-old Brazilian.
