Real Madrid won one of those games that they have won so many times lately, especially in the Champions League. For large areas that overtake the RB Leipzig in the first half, with Thibaut Courtois a figurehead but dominating and hurting in the final 30 minutes of the game, against an opponent who was already tired and without the legs to compensate for the difference in individual talent.
Leipzig threatened several times to open the scoring, suggesting a quick game on the counter attackwith Timo Werner as standard bearer. But he couldn’t identify these attacks and like so many times before, Madrid did not forgive: first with a The 100% striker definition of Federico Valverde (first Champions League goal of his career), he is increasingly establishing himself as one of the team’s top scorers. and already at the time of injury, with a set up by a back pass from Toni Kroos and a perfect shot from Marco Asensio to seal the final 2-0.
With some ups and downs, Madrid remains the same team as last season. Strong, opportunistic and seemingly infallible. I am going 2 out of 2 in the Champions and 5 out of 5 in La Ligain addition to winning the Super Cup, to frame a start of 2022-2023 literally perfect.

Real Madrid vs. RB Leipzig, live
Minute 90+1: Real Madrid’s goal! Mendy created a dangerous offense with some excellent individual play and from that free kick came Madrid’s second to secure the win. A back pass from Kroos and a perfect shot from Asensio hit Gulaci’s left post.
85th minute: Four changes in Madrid after the goal. Modric, Alaba, Rodrigo and Vinicius left. Kroos, Mendy, Mariano and Ceballos entered.
Minute 79: Real Madrid’s goal! Great play from Vinny down the left, cross for Valverde and sensational action from the Uruguayan to cross the shot and open the scoring, in 100% striker definition. The South American combination and Ancelotti’s men unlocked a complex game.
Minute 74: Double change during visit. Outside Simakan and Haidra. Enter Heinrichs and Campbell.
Minute 71: Madrid lost the first! Great action at speed from Valverde, to end up serving the goal to a Vinny who failed to define the heads-up. Asensio also failed on the rebound. Ripe 1-0 for Ancelotti’s men.
Minute 67: The game has changed. Because although Leipzig continues to show solidity in defense, it no longer has nearly the freshness and speed to come out of the first half on the counterattack. The meeting is a monologue for Madrid in this section, against an opponent who looks tired.
Minute 63: First change in Madrid. Asensio came on for Caravinga, pushing Valverde back into midfield.
60th minute: Apart from a cover by Courtois on Werner offside, little happened in those first 15 of the second half. Madrid control possession, although lack clarity for damage.
Minute 46: The second half began, with no changes.
45th minute: Final. 0-0 in an even first half, in which Leipzig surprised and were superior for long periods. Madrid barely threatened in the last five minutes, but they suffered more than they did in the first half.
40th minute: Modric! Madrid finally responded and did so with a shot from the Croatian goal that went just wide of Gulaci’s left post. The most dangerous advance of Ancelotti’s players in the first half.
Minute 38: Close to Rudiger with a header after a good cross from Vinicius.
Minute 36: Another dangerous drive from Leipzig, with Werner cutting through the area. The former Chelsea man moves all over the attacking front and is a big problem for the local defence.
Minute 29: Another level for Leipzig, with a quick counter-attack finished by Werner, into the hands of the keeper. The Germans combine good pressing and defensive security, with great speed and danger to go on the attack. They just missed the last stitch.
Minute 28: Nkunku failed! Very clear situation for the visit. Great cut assist from Werner and poor analysis from the Frenchman before Courtois went off. Complicated first half for the Spanish team.
25th minute: Madrid’s best move of the night. Great opening by Vinny for Alaba on the left wing, pass into the center and Karavinga’s shot misses in front of goal. Good connection speed.
Minute 20: Leipzig had it! The Germans always arrive with four men in attack and on this occasion, a good combination by Werner for Forsberg was close to the first goal of the night. The shot missed the door of the area.
Minute 15: Madrid’s first net arrival, with a good effort from Rodrigo to distance himself inside the German area and take a shot that is deflected. The native seems to have started to dominate the game.
Minute 10: Leipzig were alert and quick in those opening 10 minutes, quickly getting in front of each Madrid lapse. The Germans show their guns and have Ancelotti’s men on guard despite the home owner controlling possession.
Minute 5: Even the beginning of the match, in which the guest was somewhat more aggressive when looking for the opposing goal, with shots from Nkunku and Diallo. The French striker was the most dangerous, finding a good response from Courtois to send the effort into the corner.
Minute 0: It’s already played at the Bernabéu!
New gala night at the Bernabéu. Madrid are appearing in the Champions League for the first time in front of their home crowd after winning the last title and will be looking to celebrate it against a German opponent who, at least in the previous one, looks clearly inferior.
