It was Vinícius' big night as he was finally rewarded by fate for his his indomitable character, which is why his long-awaited brace deserves to be widely praised.
Yet the real dazzling display of precision and authority came from Toni Kroos, who bossed the game. All that is needed is to cut the display into 45 two-minute videos and upload them to social media and watch them go viral. What a show!
From the centre of the battlefield he displayed his immense repertoire with intelligence, calm, subtlety, elegance and with 50-yard passes like the one he put on a plate for Vinicius for the first goal.
With surgical precision, he punished the Reds by picking out pinpoint balls in behind the defence for Vinicius, Marco Asensio and Karim Benzema to feast on.
Madrid began to win the battle due to the intelligence of the German maestro who, at all times, knew what to do at the right moment.
His display against Liverpool was probably one of the best games of the best season from Kroos, who is quite possibly the best midfielder in the world.
His understanding of the game dwarfs his opponents, who at times seem like apprentices in comparison.
As it happened with Cristiano Ronaldo, it is scary to think what life will be like at Real Madrid the day that neither Kroos nor Luka Modric are there.
Together with Casemiro, they are undoubtedly one of the best midfield trios in Los Blancos history.

Bayern Munich still regret the loss of Tonny Kroos to this day they are yet to make up for the loss. Since Kroos left for Real Madrid he have led them to 4UCL titles meanwhile Bayern Munich only have won one UCL title. Tonny Kroos is the best CM since Xavi retired there's no one else. What a player! He's such a joy to watch

Johan cruyff once said "you win the midfield you win the game" And this madrid midfield is just too powerful. de jong,pedri would have to play the game of their life to even compete with them The match against real would be a reality check for barca..hopefully we can beat them🤞

1. Tonny Kroos is a CM what is called an 8 in modern football 2. Tonny Kroos is a 5 time UEFA champions league winner and he's a world cup winner 3. Tonny Kroos is had an impact in all 4 uefa champions league titles he won with Real Madrid and we all saw his impact his influence during 2014 world cup final when Germany humiliated Brazil 7-1 5. Kevin De bryune is not an 8 is a 10 he's what we call a CAM for there's a difference between a CM and CAM so you can never compare the two if you know football 6. Never ever compare Tonny Kroos with Kevin De bryune, please show some respect for Kroos !!!
