Real Madrid 3-0 Braga: Los Blancos score three to qualify for the round of 16 in style as Vinicius Jr and Rodrygo become 4th all time top scorers in Real Madrid Champions League history

Real Madrid made it to the knockout stage of the Champions League without the rested Jude Bellingham.

The England midfielder had scored three goals in his three European games but Madrid managed three without him to beat Braga comfortably.

The first half belonged to two players who barely get a look in usually. Andriy Lunin didn’t know he was starting until Kepa Arrizabalaga complained of a muscle problem in the warm-up.

Practically his first job was to face a penalty after Lucas Vazquez pulled back Cristian Borja in the area.
