Real Madrid vs Inter Milan results see Champions League

Final: Real Madrid 3-2 Inter Milan
Scored: Benzema (25); Sergio Ramos (33); Rodrygo (80) – Martinez (35); Perisico (68)

Both Real Madrid and Inter have had a disappointing start to the Champions League this season. While the White Vulture only won 1 point in the first two matches (2-3 loss to Shakhtar Donetsk and thankfully a 2-2 draw to Gladbach thanks to two late-game goals), Inter had to split points (2-2 first M’gladbach and 0-0 against Shakhtar).

However, if the Real Spanish team has a strong rise in the domestic sphere, Inter will continue to fall. Specifically, a few days ago the White Vulture had a 4-1 victory when hosting Huesca in La Liga (previously a 3-1 victory in the Super Classic match). As a result, Real Madrid climbed to second place in the league, just 1 point behind the top team, Sociedad, but played less than 1 game.

On the contrary, Inter’s form is still declining over time. Coach Antonio Conte drew 2-2 against Parma at home in Serie A last weekend. That day, Inter were 0-2 and had to fight with all their might at the end of the match to regain 1 point thanks to a goal from Ivan Perisic in the 90 + 2 minute. Inter currently occupies sixth place in the Series To BXH, 5 points behind the best team AC Milan.

Thus, Inter went to Madrid in a state of decline both mentally, in style and physically. And yet the Italian team still suffered serious losses in terms of strength when the number 1 star, top scorer Romelu Lukaku, was unable to recover in time to play.

Inter’s attack has to depend on Lautaro Martínez. But, the Argentine striker has a big problem in terms of performance and psychology, which is evidenced in the “stunned” of the last 5 games in all competitions. Joining Martinez on the attack line in Conte’s favorite 3-5-2 scheme is Ivan Perisic, the veteran Croatian star who “saved” the team a few days ago (drew 2-2 before Parma).

The right wing of Inter is Achraf Hakimi, a Moroccan talent … Real Madrid denied it, so he had to be famous in Dortmund and now he joined Inter Milan after the 40 million euro deal last summer. On the opposite flank, 35-year-old general Ashley Yong was eliminated by MU, but he remains a key card at Inter Milan.

In the midfield, Vidal, Conte’s favorite game and no stranger to Real Madrid because he used to wear Barça, is completely energetic because he rested in the Parma box and will be a fulcrum for Barella to use creativity.

Meanwhile, Real have just welcomed the return of star Eden Hazard and the Belgian midfielder shone in the first main game of this season (opening the scoring in a 4-1 win over Huesca). In addition, Marco Asensio has started to move and old General Benzema still retains the charm of scoring. Of course, this trio appears squarely on the attack line.

In the front row, Toni Kroos returned to the main line-up after having to sit a few days ago against Huesca and Luka Modric was the one who lost his seat. In defense, Varane was also present in the midfield with captain Sergio Ramos as always (the one who replaced Varane when he was absent was Eder Militao in quarantine due to Covid-19 contagion) and a young Ferland Mendy. Replacing the old man Marcelo on the left flank.

The balance of the past tips in favor of the White Vulture: Real Madrid have won 6/7 to host Inter on the continental pitch so far. Meanwhile, marching to Spain often brings nightmares for the Nerazzurri: losing 15/20 trips as a guest in the Land of Gaur (3 wins).

Unsurprisingly, the showdown between the two top-rated teams in Group B, but both find themselves at a disadvantage in the race to win attractive innings right after kickoff. The first opportunity came in minute 4 when Eden Hazard tried to get the ball into Asensio for a quick shot, but Handanovic flew wonderfully to save the visitors.

After 10 minutes, Inter Milan responded as Hakimi from the right passed through the center for Perisic on the left. Player No. 14 handled it calmly, then swung in for Barella to lead the head and the ball hit the crossbar before being briefed by Courtois.

A few minutes later, Lautaro Martínez released the ball down the middle which was just enough for Vidal to swing the cannon from near the 16m50 line and the ball hit the post. In the 23rd minute, Vázquez crossed the ball to the penalty area for Benzema and after a few touches the French forward returned the ball to Valverde to catch a volley, the ball hit the ground uncomfortably, but finally went over the crossbar.

In minute 25 the scoring was opened for the Real Spanish team with the first goal of … Achraf Hakimi. The old face of Los Blancos passed from midfield to Handanovic and was caught by Benzema, he ran down to win the ball from the Slovenian goalkeeper and easily kicked the empty net.

After the first game, Real Club de España played in a more consistent and dangerous way while Inter Milan began to be confused with “chicken with hair”. As a result, Real Madrid increased the score to 2-0 in the 33rd minute after a familiar situation: corner Kroos and super midfielder Sergio Ramos chose the exact point of landing to make a dangerous header in awe. by Handanovic.

Thus, Ramos adds 100 goals after more than 15 years at Real Madrid, an incredible number for a midfielder. However, the advantage of leading 2 goals was short-lived. In the 35th minute, Barella spontaneously hit his heels in the air to give Lautaro Martínez a good chance to eat and the Argentine forward did not fail to create the best goal in the group stage of this season’s Champions League.

The last minutes of the first half were exciting, but no more goals were scored. After the break, Real Madrid actively braked to protect the results and lower the morale of the guests who were forced to attack because before that, Gladbach had beaten Shakhtar 6-0 to take the lead. Group B with 5 points.

If they lose this match, Inter are really in danger, even they are completely in danger of finishing the group stage in last place, which means that not even a comfort ticket to the Europa League can touch. Compared to the first half, progress in the second half was much lighter. The ball is mainly contested in the middle of the field and if it is sent to the restricted area on both sides, it is easily blocked.

In the 64th minute, coach Zidane decided to renew the attack by taking Rodrygo and Vinicius to Asensio and Hazard. Immediately afterwards, Lucas Vázquez, a player who played very actively and relatively effectively from the start of the game despite having to play in the right-back position, not the correct position, took a muddy pitch from a distance of about 16 meters and the ball deflected. objective.

However, there is no need to change personnel as the rival, Inter still find a table. In the 68th minute, Brozovic passed the exemplary pass to Martinez for him to hit his head like a wall for Ivan Perisic to handle wisely (deliberately taking a beat to eliminate Vazquez) and then a volley to push the left of the class, shaking hands with Courtois.

The equalizer table brings a lot of excitement to the Nerazzurri. In the 75th minute, Mendy hit the ball in the correct position of Lautaro Martínez and Real Madrid almost paid the price if the shot that the Argentine forward made a little more accurate.

In the 78th minute, coach Conte conceded a change and it was a coincidence that Real Madrid scored again soon after. After a pile on the left wing, Vinicius dropped the ball in the middle for his Brazilian, Rodrygo controlled calmly and finished off the net in the impotence of Handanovic.

There is not much time left, so Inter can only hold on, but all efforts are in vain. In addition to the certainty of Real’s defense, Milano himself also lacked creativity. Coach Conte’s HR adjustment options are ineffective.

Not only that, before the match ended, Handanovic did not play well, Benzema scored the second goal of the match after a close-range shot. In the end, Real Madrid had for the first time a triumphant song in Group B Champions League 2020/21 thanks to the courage and class of the richest team in the tournament.
