'Real Madrid's two-goal Champions League hero Rodrygo says he finally understands 'the legend of the Santiago Bernabeu on European nights' following their dramatic comeback victory over Man City

Real Madrid's Champions League hero Rodrygo has revealed he now understands the legend of the Santiago Bernabeu after their incredible victory over Manchester City.

Dreams of a 14th Champions League triumph looked to be coming to an end after Riyad Mahrez scored in the 73rd minute to give Pep Guardiola's side a 5-3 aggregate lead.

Real Madrid's 21-year-old Brazilian star came off the bench and scored two dramatic late goals to send the game to extra-time, where Karim Benzema booked their place in the final from the penalty spot.
