Real Madrid only needed a point to secure their place in the last 16 of the Champions League, but they have surely instead pick up another victory in this season’s competition. Having led 1-0 at half time, Los Blancos have added two quickfire goals to go 3-0 in front against Braga.
It was Brahim Diaz that opened the scoring just before the half hour mark with a well-worked team goal. The 24-year-old, who has been on the fringes so far this season, scored his second goal in two starts for Real Madrid.
The hosts doubled their lead on 58 minutes when Vinicius Junior found the back of the net, ending a four-match scoreless run in the process.
