There was also a Fortuga, since Jack Grealish was injured after 30 minutes, after having played in the manner of a man with a point to show his manager.
Real could pierce nerves and anxiety in the field and out. The winner of Jude Bellingham’s injury time almost had a feeling of inevitability, since the city’s revolt minds led to errors. The punishment of short distance, the talisman of England turned home with the erratic goalkeeper Ederson out of his land after being sent by Vinicius Junior.
Vinicius Junior, understandably given the banner prior to the party, enjoyed the moment and delighted with the celebrations of the Real’s victory. The perfect answer.
It was the true Madrid, well, Real Madrid. Nothing is resolved in them until the final beep sounds.
The headlines only led in this game for 90 seconds. Crucially for them, and perhaps fatally for Manchester City, it was during the last 90 seconds.
Leave the city, given its current form and propensity to collapse, almost needing a miracle in the second section in the Bernabéu. And miracles only tend to happen to the white team in that iconic and implacable sand.
The story was also told on tired legs that consumed the city in the second half, when Real made the show, losing a lot of opportunities when they assumed control, before the half -beaten end of Kylian Mbappe equalized the early blow of Erling Haaland.
It was totally against the game streak when the striker restored the leadership of the city, which they had until the real characteristic occurs.
City can still challenge the chances in Madrid, but when possible, this season continues to carry all the air of an era that ends, a great team that reaches the end of the road.
