Real Madrid Soars with Champions League 15

The goals of Dani Carvajal and Vinicius Junior gave Real Madrid its fifteenth Champions League title this Saturday, defeating a Borussia Dortmund team that was very forgiving.

In the first 45 minutes Madrid’s game was not normal. He came out to receive the ball, but not to play the game. The ball went from one side to the other in their area, but it was Borussia who knew what to do.

Looking at those 45 frustrating minutes of Madrid, one can only hope for improvement. To get worse or to remain on the same line would mean saying goodbye to the ‘orejona’.

And if Madrid has something, it is the historical resilience to survive irregularities, to hold on to the wire.

Madrid, little by little, but with its classic ‘infortitos’, such as the one saved by Courtois on a full-fledged header, was in the game. He had arrived just in time, without haste, to cook the game on a slow flame.

Matsen, with a devastating delivery, gave Bellingham and Vinicius two for one. The Englishman, who had missed the second moments earlier, connected with the Brazilian, who gave the final blow to the title with a cut shot.

The fifteenth in the greatest club performance in the history of the European Cup. The one that symbolizes the departure of Cruz, that the shield was pointed with the job done, that from this Saturday there is another title at Wembley.
