30′ Real Madrid 1-0 Manchester City
Half an hour gone and Real Madrid, the competition’s record 15-time winners, are ahead.
Alvaro Carreras outmuscled little Bernardo Silva in the corner, totally fair challenge, and sprinted forward.
One pass, another into Jude Bellingham’s feet and Madrid were in behind City.
A nice early ball into Rodrygo, who had created a pocket of space away from marker Nico O’Reilly.
A touch to control, a touch to set it, and the third to crack it into the bottom-left corner past the dive of Donnarumma.
O’Reilly could and should have been closer but that is a clinical finish from a man who was in a big goal drought!
