15' GOAL! Bayern 1-0 Real Madrid (Tolisso)
BAYERN HAVE THE BREAKTHROUGH! 1-0! That goal has been coming, it was simply a matter of which side would get it! Miller brilliantly springs Coman through on goal, and his low cross finds a way through to Tolisso who is miraculously denied by Courtois on the first attempt, before slotting home the rebound!
42' Incredible! Benzema misses golden chance!
HOW HAS HE MISSED THAT?! A delicious Isco cross in towards the far post is met by Benzema, who has the goal at his mercy, but just gets the contact wrong as he knocks an effort wide! It was almost harder to miss than score there!
67' GOAL! Bayern 2-0 Real Madrid (Lewandowski)
BAYERN RUNNING RIOT! It's 3-0! Gnabry simply couldn't miss there!It's a gift from Real Madrid as they play themselves into trouble and give the ball away deep in their end, as it's played into the area for an unmarked Gnabry, who takes a touch to control before rolling a finish into the bottom corner.

Match Reports
Eden Hazard wore the Real Madrid jersey for the first time since his big-money move from Chelsea in Saturday's ICC loss to Bayern Munich.
Hazard wore the Madrid jersey for the first time since his big-money move from Chelsea, while fellow recruits Luka Jovic, Ferland Mendy and Rodrygo Goes also made their bows for Zinedine Zidane's side.
But Corentin Tolisso, Robert Lewandowski and Serge Gnabry stole the show as Bayern put Madrid to the sword in the second half, which saw Zidane make 11 changes at the interval.
Tolisso opened the scoring in the 15th minute and Bayern completely dominated in the second half, with substitutes Lewandowski and Gnabry condemning Madrid to defeat in their ICC opener on Saturday.
Madrid did have something to celebrate when Rodrygo capped his debut with a stunning 84th-minute free-kick after Sven Ulreich was sent off for bringing down the former Santos youngster.

Zidane made really bad choices today. He should have started Hazard, Jovic, and Vinicius/Kubo/Rodrygo. Rather than that he assembled a team of flops from last season. Benzema is a great player but he’s not consistent with goals and pre season is a great platform to try out new players and new strategies. Zidane completely skewered up with his starting 11 and the substitutions. None of the player had chemistry in the 2nd half and the midfield was full of completely new and useless players and I saw them for the first time and most of them were playing their own game instead of playing as a team. Only Hazard, Kubo, and Rodrygo played well. Disappointed with Zidane.

Vinicius wasn’t running he was bad and also benzema. Asensio I wasn’t even sure where he was playing. Isco what was he doing. Ramos should focus more on the defensive side first. Hazard should have scored instead of trying to pass to benzema. The second half team was bad defensively, all the back four was poor. Jovic wasn’t getting any supplies and so of the right side Lucas Vazquez. Mariano deserves a chance he is good. And u see how poor the midfield is in the second half while we are selling ceballos, lorrente, and kovacic. And also zidane is not the same coach during the 3 champions league

GREAT MATCH! Yeah we got raped but it's pre season where teams are supposed to be getting back to their best. Anyways on with the analysis: -Great first half! Lot of chances created (though Benzema wasted all😝😎😭). Hazard was good for his debut.Carvajal a bit shaky but he'll get there. Marcelo,Kroos,Modric, Isco were all GREAT! -Second half: there's CLEARLY promise in the young players we recently acquired. JAPANESE KUBO was wonderful, Zidane should consider keeping him in the senior squad. I honestly see him being a crucial player for us in the future. Rodrygo(DAMN THAT FREE KICK GOAL😍😍😍😍) is a good passer but he needs the experience so him going to Castilla is a good decision. Mendy isn't ready to replace the Marcelo we saw today! Jovic was kind of dissapointing to be honest, I hardly saw him on the ball. One thing that wasn't lacking is energy so that's a plus. We'll get where we need to be🙌🙏🙏🙏 Hala Madrid💯

even though we lost, I love what I'm seeing from our new players. they play with passion and fire and I love it. Kubo, Rodrigo ( that free kick was insane), jovic, although you didn't really do that much, but your effort is appreciated, and Mendy, good work lads.

Also lost their entire fan base because all the fan girls migrated cause deep down they only cared about Ronaldo and when the team started losing, well “they were already Juve fans” not that I’m talking about anybody in particular...
