Victory in the Champions League opener

14 hour(s)

Real Madrid debuted with a victory in this edition of the Champions League. Mourinho's team secured the win against Inter in just 23 minutes with goals from Mbappé and impressively deflected with his reflexes. Our team's response came eleven minutes later and was emphatic. Brahim recovered the ball near the opponent's area and assisted Mbappé, who beat J. Martínez with a brilliant first-touch finish.

Valverde extends the lead
The dangerous plays continued at both ends, and Courtois had to intervene again in the 20th minute, punching away a powerful free-kick shot from Çalhanoğlu. Three minutes later, our team extended the lead after a high and organized press in which Valverde scored by stealing the ball from goalkeeper J. Martínez. A 2-0 lead midway through the first half, although in the 35th minute, the visitors almost scored with a left-footed shot inside the box from Jones that hit the crossbar.

Brahim hits the post
In added time, there was another shot off the post, this time for Mourinho's side. Mbappé recovered the ball in midfield and embarked on a spectacular run into the area, where he evaded Çalhanoğlu and shot with his left foot. A great save by the goalkeeper, followed by an even better stretch to stop Bellingham's rebound attempt. The subsequent shot by Brahim, from a tight angle, ended up hitting the post. That brought the first half to a close, and after the break, Real Madrid could have scored again. A long clearance by Trent from a visitor's corner saw Mbappé race from midfield against Diouf and beat him in the 49th minute, but J. Martínez once again made a crucial save.

Chances
As the minutes ticked by, in the 58th minute, another chance came for our team. A spectacular play by Brahim, who reached the byline after getting past Bastoni and Jones, crossed to the far post, where Bellingham was waiting, but J. Martínez once again shone to deny another goal for the home side. Just as Courtois did five minutes later, deflecting Bastoni's shot from the edge of the box with a beautiful dive. The match was end-to-end, and in the 66th minute, another clear chance came for Mbappé. Valverde won the ball back in midfield, Brahim delivered it to the penalty spot, and the Frenchman's shot was again saved by Inter's goalkeeper. Another recovery by Bellingham two minutes later led to another opportunity for Madrid, this time with Brahim as the protagonist, but his shot missed the target by mere centimeters. Things got complicated in the 76th minute with Carlos Augusto's goal, but from there until the end, Mourinho's men held on to their lead and secured their first three points in the Champions League.
