PLAYER OF THE MATCH – RODRYGO (REAL MADRID)

There weren’t many obvious opportunities in tonight’s game, but the Brazilian dynamo made all the difference.There was a lot of attacking pressure on Rodrygo because his Brazilian colleague was unavailable, and he definitely delivered. He was a constant threat for Madrid along the left wing during a first half that saw them struggle to create clear openings. While Los Blancos led at the break thanks to his flash of brilliance, which came in from the left before he unleashed an unstoppable curling strike into the top corner.The talented winger kept up his threat as Madrid had the upper hand in the second half. His second goal was nearly a carbon copy of the first, as he burst through the defence once more, leaving no defender in his path and sent the ball into the upper corner.He was unfortunate not to get a second assist as well since in the second half, he set up an open goal for Joselu, who decided not to shoot because he thought he was offside.Bellingham ghi bàn, Real Madrid trở lại ngôi đầu bảng La Liga | Báo Dân trí.
