Benfica 0-1 Real Madrid | Champions League 25/26 Match Highlights
Transcript
00:03Leading the line for Benfica this evening. Two changes on us soon.
00:09We have Kamavinga with the legs as well, who can cover in this position.
00:13They're not going to play on a 4-4-2, I don't think. I think it's going to be...
00:22So away we go. Benfica in there.
00:27Benfica Junior. Here's Carreras.
00:34Kamavinga. Hines. Mbappe.
00:36And Mbappe's shot is on target. Spilled and regathered by Trubin.
00:41That's exactly what Real Madrid can do when they go with pace and quality there.
00:46Straight at the goal.
00:48Norway are going to be a team to watch at the World Cup this coming summer.
00:51They have got some players.
00:54There's another one. Awishness putting the corner in.
00:57And the header's on target, but easy for Trubin.
01:01Now Thomas Araujo and co have to get back quickly there.
01:05Job is done for them though by Dedic.
01:07Dedic is going to have a go.
01:11Courtois was able to...
01:12Dedic just read the situation well.
01:14Mbappe coming out to the left-hand side.
01:20Schuermeni.
01:24Mardukule, he's having a look.
01:26And stinging the palms of Trubin.
01:29He's able to pat it down comfortably.
01:33Rudiger.
01:36Alexander-Arnold.
01:37Really clever ball.
01:38It's a beauty.
01:39Pulled back.
01:40It's arrived at Vinicius Junior's feet.
01:42And he's put it just wide.
01:45Super.
01:46Arnold with arguably the pass of the match.
01:51Back to the Stade-Louis-deux where Paris are in trouble.
01:56Monaco have doubled their lead thanks to Florian.
02:02Having a run past Carreras.
02:04That was the idea.
02:06Out to Prestiani.
02:09Hausson heads away as far as Frederic Ouschners.
02:12Oh, he got all of that.
02:14Really smart stop from Courtois.
02:16Saw it from a long way out but...
02:18Such was the speed that ball was travelling and a bit of a deflection on it.
02:25Ouschners.
02:27Leandro Pereira.
02:33Camavinga.
02:35Vinicius Junior.
02:43Mbappe.
02:44Too high.
02:45And it always looked like being so.
02:48Saved by the keeper, Coon.
02:49But it's Ashcraft, Hakimi, who make it 2-2.
02:56Mbappe!
02:58Misses the target.
02:59What have we seen in the match so far?
03:01Oh, it's absolutely outstanding.
03:03It starts from Mbappe.
03:04Starts to move up, then continues his run.
03:06It's a lovely flick from Vinicius Junior.
03:09It's just the finish that's missing.
03:11Everything else was brilliant.
03:13So fluid in the way that they go forward.
03:17That was absolutely gorgeous, except for the finish.
03:21Mbappe's not found his...
03:23Seems to have been quite a while ago now.
03:25Most of the action has been increasingly at the other end.
03:30Camavinga.
03:32Nowhere to go, but he found somewhere to go, and he keeps on going.
03:36Now here's Mbappe!
03:39Saved by Trubin, and it's a really big save.
03:43It's a lovely play.
03:45It's a really important block as well.
03:50This was the Mbappe chance, wasn't it?
03:51He just cuts it onto that left foot and...
03:54Now Rauscho deals with the scramble that follows, but...
03:57Benfica are hanging on until half-time here.
04:01Ardugula.
04:01Space made!
04:03Oh, it's another deflection behind for a corner.
04:08That's another really good save from Trubin.
04:11I don't know if it takes a slight deflection, if it does it,
04:14it goes through the legs, but what a save that is.
04:17He sees it late, goes through Otamendi's legs.
04:20And a good job it takes out.
04:23There is the whistle to bring about half-time,
04:26and that got more frenetic as it went on.
04:29It was pretty lively from the start,
04:31notably from Benfica.
04:33This Real Madrid onslaught.
04:35Let's head back to Lisbon.
04:37Here is Sue Smith and Guy Mowbray, your commentary team.
04:45And with the music still pumping out,
04:47a full-back with Madrid, won two Champions Leagues.
04:51Played three seasons under Jose Mourinho,
04:54and he was a Champions League runner-up with Liverpool as well in 2007,
04:57although he didn't get on the field.
05:01World Cup winner with Spain.
05:08Mbappe, World Cup winner himself,
05:10finding Vinicius Junior.
05:12Oh, that is magnificent!
05:17Top corner, top draw, top class from Vinicius Junior.
05:22He has lit up the Estadio de Luz.
05:26We've been waiting for a breakthrough.
05:30Looked as though he was going to take something special.
05:33We've just seen something special.
05:51Benfica are arguing the toss about the goal.
05:55Otamendi's having a word with Vinicius Junior.
06:00It doesn't seem as though there's much to complain about it.
06:03I don't think so.
06:04It's absolutely world-class, isn't it?
06:07What a strike this is!
06:08He takes it early, so once he cuts in onto that right foot,
06:11just takes it so early into that far corner.
06:14The goalkeeper, Trubin, has absolutely no chance.
06:18That's the moment of brilliance that we've been looking for.
06:21Oh, Vinicius Junior.
06:21He's going to touch it out.
06:23Didn't go out.
06:24Carreras to Vinicius Junior.
06:26Finding that angle again.
06:28Trying to chip for Mbappe.
06:30Schuermaini.
06:31Vinicius Junior!
06:33Nicely stopped by Trubin.
06:44Alexander-Arnold beaten by the...
06:47Vinicius!
06:47No way through Rudiger.
06:49Not like that.
06:52A drink or break.
06:54Played Pasperrero for Vinicius Junior to move onto it.
06:58And then run at him.
07:01And Araujo.
07:03He's taking them all on before poking it in.
07:06And I think that might have needed to be done.
07:09Didn't really need to do it, did he, Prestiani?
07:11It was a good run from him.
07:12Goes across the defender.
07:22Schuermaini.
07:22Camavinga.
07:25Vinicius Junior.
07:26Oh, he's up.
07:27Oh, he got that chance again.
07:28How much time and space can you when he cuts it onto that right foot.
07:32This time he just can't get the accuracy into that top corner, but...
07:37So dangerous.
07:39It's easier said than done, isn't it?
07:40I'd say try not to show him inside, but...
07:43Because he's so twisty.
07:44Vinicius Junior behind.
07:46It was Camavinga in front.
07:47And now it's a yellow car for Jose Mourinho.
07:50Oh, is he the second one?
07:52Yeah, it's been quickly followed by another.
07:54Jose Mourinho sees refs.
07:56One last Benfica break.
07:57No, they've given it away.
08:00Here's Mbappe.
08:00And here's Mbappe.
08:05Screaming in there was Brahim Diaz to try and keep the ball going,
08:08keep the game alive, but it's over now.
08:10The game at least.
08:12The talking.
08:13The game.
08:14The game.
08:14The game.
08:16The game.
