Madrid cruises past Legia Warsaw in Champions League

Real Madrid remained undefeated in the Champions League this season with a 5-1 victory against Polish side Legia Warsaw, today in the Champions League.

“Goals come from hard work from the off in a game”.

Madrid were always likely to take the three points in a unusual game at the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu – with Gareth Bale, Marco Asensio, Lucas Vazquez, Alvaro Morata and a Tomasz Jodlowiec own goal on their side of the scoresheet, and Miroslav Radovic’s penalty counting as the consolation for the visitors.

Meanwhile in Real’s group, Borussia Dortmund had to see off a spirited late charge to hold onto a 2-1 win against Sporting in Lisbon.

Ronaldo remains two short of 100 career goals in Europe.

The goals have dried up for Cristiano Ronaldo. “But he did well and created a lot of chances”.

However, after breaking his drought in Zagreb, Dybala scored for the third straight match on Saturday, netting twice as Juventus rallied to beat Udinese 2-1.

“There was no specific strategy for Ronaldo“, Legia coach Jacek Magiera said. “I’m happy with his goals and with everything he is giving us”. “Our defenders did well, we conceded five goals but we didn’t allow him to score, which is positive”. “Real Madrid have talent, fast counter attack and their substitutes helped increase their attack, but we wanted to show a Polish side could play against such an opponent on such a stage”, he said. “But even then I would say that we are not taking any teams lightly”.

Karim Benzema teed up Marcelo, whose shot took a wicked deflection off Tomasz Jodlowiec in the 19th minute to make it 2-0 to Real Madrid.

The hosts scored their second in the 20th minute when Marcelo’s low strike deflected off Jodlowiec before dropping into the back of the net, but Legia had one back less than two minutes later when Miroslav Radovic, having been fouled by Danilo inside the penalty box, stepped up to beat Navas from the spot to cap a insane few minutes.

In the 8th round of the examples of Spain, Real Betis defeated with a score of 1: 6, thus said the team return.

“These incidents reflect negatively on us and we have to ensure they don’t happen again”.

Morata’s cross set up Vazquez for the fourth, before Ronaldo turned provider for a second time to assist Morata for Real’s fifth.

Video footage has emerged of a group of fans, claimed to consist of Legia ultras, punching and kicking riot police to the ground outside the Santiago Bernabeu stadium.
