The situation in Group A of the Champions League 2019-2020 is almost clear when PSG leads with 9 absolute points after 3 matches. The remaining ticket to the knockout round is the competition between Real Madrid, Club Brugge and Galatasaray.
Of course, Los Blancos, as the "king of C1" will have the most opportunities. But there is no such thing as a certain thing, especially when looking at Real's poor first two games.
At this time, coach Zidane and his team need to "pull up" their spirit and win all the points they can. Galatasaray is their first "prey".
With a minimal victory in the previous match, not many people thought Real would have an easy match when meeting the Turkish representative again. However, it seems that all worries are somewhat exaggerated. The "White Vultures" completely dominated the game and won a resounding victory thanks to the brilliance of the attack.
Taking advantage of their home field, Real Madrid raised their formation right after the opening whistle. It took Rodrygo just four minutes to get Los Blancos up with a skillful move after a pass from Marcelo.
The psychological advantage was soon relieved, Real Madrid were truly themselves. High-precision passes, coordinated pieces are clearly interwoven and the star knows how to speak at the right time.
Rodrygo only took 3 more minutes to score the second goal for Real. It was still a cross from his senior Marcelo but this time the 18-year-old star jumped high and headed home a goal.
The more rhythmic the game, the more Real ended the first half with 2 more goals. After Ramos successfully converted the penalty in the 14th minute, it was Benzema's turn to speak up at the end of the first half.
Meanwhile, the visiting team Galatasaray held the ball for only half and could not hit Thibaut Courtois' goal.
Entering the second half, the game continued to take place in one direction. Even when Real Madrid replaced a series of pillars, they still had control.
The Turkish representative refused to change the approach to the match and only relied on a few unintentional attacks.
Therefore, Real Madrid can rest assured and attack. There were many opportunities but the lack of luck of Kroos and Hazard denied Real's goal.
It was not until the 81st minute that Benzema helped the home team increase the gap to 5-0. The French striker got a double after an easy tap-in from Carvajal's cross.
In the final minutes of injury time, Benzema "responed" Rodrygo with a smart assist to help the 18-year-old star complete his hat-trick.
Real completed the "tenny set" easily with Galatasaray to solidify their 2nd place in Group A with 7 points after 4 matches. In the match at the same time, 3rd-placed Club Brugge lost to PSG with a score of 0-1 and currently have only 2 points after 4 rounds.
