Real Madrid beаt Braga 3-0 thanks to goals from Brahim, Vini Jr., and Rodrygo. They will now play in the next round.

Braga lost to Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabéu. This was Real Madrid’s fourth straight win in the Champions League, and they are now in the Round of 16. Brahim got the team going in the first half by stroking home a pass from Rodrygo. The other two goals came in an amazing second half. When the clock Һit 58, Vini Jr. made the lead bigger, and three minutes later, Rodrygo made it three with a beautiful chip. Next time out, our team only needs a point against Napoli to win the group.

It was a very fast start to the game, and Braga could have been ahead after only five minutes. Cristian Borja was brought down in the box by Lucas Vázquez. Djaló went up to take the penalty kιck, but Lunin guessed right and made a great save. In the sixth minute, the Madrid fans reacted. Brahim had the ball in the net, but the goal was called off because Vini Jr. had fouled Niakaté before the shot. Around 25 minutes into the game, our team had another good chance. This time, it came after a quick cоunterattack, and Valverde turned Vini Jr.’s beautiful ball with the outside of his right foot toward the goal.

The boys of Ancelotti kept pushing forward in search of the first goal, and they got it after 27 minutes. Rodrygo ran to the byline and pulled the ball back for Brahim. From inside the box, Brahim scored with his left foot. Before halftime, it could have been two, but Matheus saved Rodrygo’s hard shot on 41′. When the players came out for the second half, the game was pretty much the same. As the minutes went by, Madrid became even more dominant. On the 46th minute, Kroos sent in a corner, and Nacho met it with a strong header that went right into the goalkeeper’s hands.

The most powerful spell

Then Brahim had an even better chance—two, to be exact—with a quick counter on 55′. He was put through his paces by Vini Jr. and Matheus, who was smarter than the Spaniard the first time they met. The man from Malaga was Һit by the rebound, but his shot Һit Niakaté instead. In the same way that the second goal of the game was set up, it was also scored by a quick Madrid move. In the 58th minute, Lucas Vázquez passed the ball to Vini Jr., who took it in stride and whipped a nice finish into the corner.

Madrid has kept five clean sheets in a row.

Now our team was really firing, and after three minutes, they were three goals ahead thanks to another killing counter. Rodrygo scored with a beautiful chip over the goalie after Vini Jr. set him up. At 64′ and 65′, Rodrygo and Valverde both had more chances, but both shots went into the side netting. From that point on until the end, our boys kept making things difficult while staying strong at the back to keep a fifth straight clean sheet at the Bernabéu. In the 77th minute, Nico Paz, who had just graduated from the school, was able to make his debut.
