GOLAZONEWSReal Madrid secure third Champions League win against RB Leipzig
- Real Madrid defeated RB Leipzig 4-1 at the Santiago Bernabéu.
- Bernardo Silva scored his first goal for the club during the match.
- Vinícius Júnior has now gone nine games without a goal for Madrid.
Real Madrid maintained their perfect start in the Champions League by defeating RB Leipzig 4-1 on Wednesday. Bernardo Silva opened the scoring late in the first half, marking his first goal for the club since joining from Manchester City. Arda Guler extended the lead early in the second half, with Kylian Mbappé and Yan Diomande also finding the net to secure the victory.
Despite the team's success, Vinícius Júnior continues to face a difficult period. The forward was substituted midway through the second half by manager José Mourinho and has now failed to score in nine consecutive appearances. Following the match, Vinícius Júnior addressed his form on social media, stating that "everything passes."
Manager José Mourinho acknowledged the atmosphere surrounding the player, noting that while being whistled away from home can provide motivation, it is damaging when it occurs at home. Leipzig, who had previously suffered a heavy defeat against Bayern Munich, showed resistance in the first half before Real Madrid pulled away in the closing stages.
