Everything was set for Manchester City to play their second UEFA Champions League final, after Pep Guardiola’s team was winning 1-0 at the Santiago Bernabeu. However, Real Madrid only needed two minutes to force extra time.
In contrast with the first leg, the match at the Santiago Bernabeu had two and Madrid were more timid. While the local team had many chances to open the scoring, it was Riyad Mahrez who sent the ball to the net with a banger.
However, Rodrygo stepped up as the unexpected hero with a brace in the 90th and 91th minute to force the extra time. Then, Benzema scored the third goal to seal Real Madrid’s victory and another Champions League final for Los Blancos.
