Real Madrid celebrated their 500th Champions League match with a thrilling 2-1 win over city rivals Atlético Madrid. The Sun reported that Rodrygo put Los Blancos ahead early, but Atlético’s Julián Álvarez – a recent signing from Manchester City – struck back with a stunning equalizer in the 32nd minute. Just when the game seemed to be heading for a draw, former Man City player Brahim Díaz secured the win for Real Madrid in the second half.
While the victory gives Madrid an advantage, Atlético remains in the fight for the second leg. The clash was another reminder of the high stakes and intense rivalry between these two Spanish giants.
