Liverpool 2: 0

Liverpool dominated Real Madrid (2-0). The first clear opportunity came after just five minutes of play. Mbappé lost the ball in the opposing half of the pitch but the Reds' counterattack was almost fatal. Courtois had to push away Nunez's shot but Asencio then came close to scoring an own goal but saved his team in extremis. This was only the first warning in a long series. Indeed, the English dominated the first half but struggled to deceive the vigilance of Courtois who made several decisive interventions. When they returned from the locker room, the Reds had the same intentions and continued to dominate. And they will end up being rewarded. Mac Allister combines with Bradley in the opposing area before deceiving Courtois by crossing his shot perfectly (52nd). In the process, Camavinga is injured, filling up the Madrid infirmary even more. Despite all these facts of play against Real Madrid, a clearing will take place. Indeed, Vazquez will obtain a penalty. Mbappé then advances but stumbles on Kelleher (61st) thus prolonging his dark period since his arrival at his favorite club. He must have been even more disoriented when Salah gets a penalty a few minutes later. The Egyptian then has a break point at the end of his feet but he misses the target (71') thus leaving immense hope to his opponents. Despite this big miss, Liverpool manages to make the break on a header from Gakpo, strangely left alone in the area (77'). The Reds will then control the end of the match thus ensuring a new success in the Champions League.
