It was difficult to imagine such a scenario for Real Madrid in the early evening. Reduced to 10 against Pachuca after the logical expulsion of Raul Asensio, the dominated Merengue, finally managed to open the score thanks to Jude Bellingham, then to double the bet through Arda Güler. All at the end of beautiful collective sequences, which suggest the brand new game project of Xabi Alonso. And the party continued in the second half.
While the pace had dropped, Federico Valverde came to bury the last Mexican hopes. At the end of a one-two, during which Brahim Diaz offered him a balloon maneuver over the defense, the Urguayan concluded the action of a raging tackle. A good way to get back in the saddle, another day after his missed penalty against Al-Hilal (1-1)
