00:02it's a response to that defeat at the weekend and it wasn't just the loss it was also the
00:07performance I don't think was was good enough and I just feel this Benfica side with one other
00:12change to Madrid's team from the first leg Raul Asensio is back from suspension Richard
00:18Rios will certainly play in a more holding midfield role alongside
00:26so Madrid get the game underway first touch of the ball went to opportunities might be one coming
00:35Benfica's way now Sheldoruk trying to deliver he's kept it in and then he hits the side netting
00:46saying that tonight he wants his team to present a great image do things right
00:51anything else doesn't concern him flying into the side netting the way it did
00:58flicked across and Courtois makes the gather look really easy looked a dangerous corner at first
01:04yeah he's whipped in with some pace wasn't it flicked on at that near post but
01:08that is Courtois he's just so commanding makes big saves he did that last week
01:13he had to in the first half in particular didn't he
01:23come of anger and this is shouldn't you it's taken from him by Derek
01:34Pavlidis mentioned Ardegulis 100th game for Real Madrid Thomas Araujo and Vangelis Pavlidis playing for Benfica for the hundredth time
01:43tonight as well
01:47Schildor up Rafa Silva gets past one toe poke attempt straight at Courtois Rafa Silva
02:01now Shnes finds Deric
02:07Richard Rafa Silva wants it he's playing quite high up the field and it's a lovely layoff for Pavlidis Pavlidis
02:13across and Courtois makes the save first time but not second
02:18Rafa Silva is in the right place for Benfica and they've levelled the tie
02:27what a ball it was from Richard Rafa Silva
02:31what a ball it was from Richard Rios Pavlidis kept his head
02:34Courtois in the first instance prevented the own goal he couldn't stop
02:38can't help but wonder just where oh let's just pause for that thought with Otamendi giving the ball away cheaply
02:45Schuermeni
02:48Ardegulis
02:50Pulled back for Schuermeni
02:54Magnificent
03:03His first goal of the season his first ever goal in the Champions League and it's a really really important
03:12one for Real Madrid
03:18Valverde
03:18Valverde
03:20Camavinga
03:21he's having a think about it
03:24straight at Trubin
03:25down
03:26seen the sight of goal and
03:28yeah straight at Trubin you'd expect him to see
03:32magic happens
03:40dead edge
03:42not the right amount of cushion
03:46Camavinga
03:47Pavlidis working back
03:49Vinicius Junior holds him off and sets off
03:53Vinicius Junior has a go trying to catch Trubin out with
03:56the sneaky shot
04:00if he could have beaten him again Benfica were in trouble
04:02he's gonna have another go
04:04lifting it for Valverde
04:06and Gonzalo Garcia has a go
04:09it's a lovely little ball in from Vinicius Junior does well initially
04:12to be the defender but then he gets himself into a good area to just deliver the cross there
04:16there's no foul there
04:19goalkeeper hasn't got it in his height
04:21it's difficult to see isn't it with the
04:23as we were looking at it
04:30and it's been disallowed
04:55well it's as we were at the end of the first leg really with just one goal separating the teams
05:00an action-packed first half three minutes really where it really all sparked into life
05:06Rafa Silva nipping in
05:12Benfica get the second half started and they'll want to start it again
05:21in from Alexander-Arnold
05:23doesn't reach Rudiger just goes over the top
05:27Raul Asensio
05:28delivery from Trent Alexander-Arnold
05:30out swinging
05:31safe Asensio doesn't get it Rudiger's there he gets up well but he just seems to connect as he's coming
05:36down
05:37Benfica try and scramble clear but there's no room for manoeuvre there
05:40here's Trent Alexander-Arnold
05:42who cuts back in and goes back out
05:44and only just misses by a whisker
05:46it worked that brilliantly
05:48I did it's really good play from Real Madrid
05:50Benfica just can't clear their lines and
05:52he's been
05:53he started his second half a lot higher
05:55Trent Alexander-Arnold
05:56he's staying
05:57wide on that right-hand side
05:58just gets himself into the penalty area
06:00twists and turns
06:01gets himself onto that right foot
06:03you just think it's going to nestle
06:04in that far corner
06:10Benfica
06:10Vinicius Junior
06:11dispossessed
06:13might be a chance now
06:14it's Rafa Silva
06:17clip something
06:18top of bar
06:19glove of Courtois
06:20maybe a bit of a
06:21brilliant effort
06:22Vinicius Junior just getting caught in possession
06:24win the ball back so well
06:26and then when it comes to Silva
06:27Pavli there's
06:28obviously picks him out outside of the boot
06:30maybe takes a slight nick
06:32does it
06:32slight deflection
06:33that's why it's a corner
06:34yeah it does
06:35it's off Raul Asensio
06:37I think Benfica have played well
06:39in this second half
06:40and like you say
06:40I think they've stopped
06:41it at source
06:42they've stopped it going to him
06:43as much as it was maybe in that first half
06:48now they have to find that extra bit of attacking gear
06:50and guard against this
06:52it's Vinicius Junior
06:54and he scored
06:57he was always going to tonight wasn't he
07:03this time the celebrations are all about the smiles
07:07because that goal
07:10has put Madrid
07:12within touching distance of their regular place in the last 16 and who knows how far beyond that
07:22that is how to finish it off
07:25he's an absolute class act isn't he guy
07:27we actually said
07:28in this second half
07:30he's probably not been as lively as what he was in the first half
07:33we've been struggling to think of how they were going to get the one
07:41all or nothing it's got to be
07:43for the Lisbon Giants now
07:47here's Dahl
07:48Schilder up
07:49gets the cross in
07:51oh brilliant attempt
07:53that deserved a goal
07:56oh this is superb isn't it
07:58initially the ball in from Schilder up the outside of the boot but then
08:02just the way that he
08:03it doesn't have to be
08:06because that is it
08:08and Real Madrid had a one goal lead
08:10from the first leg a week ago
08:13and they finished tonight
08:16we'll see you next time
08:17bye
