Match Report
Madrid were the more vibrant from the off and Vinícius Júnior served warning of their intent with an early header wide. The forward made no mistake with his next chance, firing past Alisson Becker after latching on to a raking Toni Kroos pass.
Another Kroos crossfield ball helped set up the second, Trent Alexander-Arnold's header back falling short of his goalkeeper, allowing Marco Asensio the opportunity to clip the ball past Alisson Becker and tap into an empty net.
Jürgen Klopp's side improved after the interval with Mohamed Salah drilling in off the bar to reduce arrears but their defence could not hold back Vinícius Júnior, who swept home his second to give the Merengues a two-goal cushion ahead of the return.

Despite not creating a single chance tonight, no player completed more XTU (expected thumbs up) per 90 than Thiago (17). Maestro.

Unfortunately this Madrid win will receive limited coverage tonight from AF. If this had been a Barcelona win, they would have posted 17 different stories from several different angles by now. Useless people!!

Don't be delusional!! Hazard was absolutely fantastic in 2019(in his last days at Chelsea). He was very key to us winning the Europa League and finishing 3rd so don't say such dumb things

your so called legend just insults himself, because when Madrid is cheating other teams even barca last el classico when Ramos was flying in the box ,I think he was drunk and didn't watch the match, his ass just burning because he never thought barca would ever make it to the second spot, so he wants attention, he should be FIFA then, haaaa haaaa
