Real Madrid avoids a new defeat in the Champions League, Joao Felix saves Atleti

The madridisti are the last of the key B with the only point added this Tuesday, but they are only three units behind the leader, Shakhtar.

With goals from Benzema and Casemiro in the final stretch, Real Madrid avoided on Tuesday 27 October in Mönchengladbach (2-2) what would have been the second defeat in the ‘Champions’, while the Portuguese Joao Felix saved Atlético with a brace to give the victory to the rojiblancos against Salzburg (3-2).

Real Madrid used their European Cup experience to start a draw (2-2) against Borussia Mönchengladbach this Tuesday, which went ahead with a brace from Frenchman Marcus Thuram (33 and 58) and who had the chance to eliminate the Spanish Champion.

But the white team never gives up and in the last minutes they got the draw with goals from Karim Benzema (87) and Casemiro (90 + 3).

The madridisti are last in key B with the only point added this Tuesday, but they are only three units behind the leader, Shakhtar, who in the other key match drew 0-0 against Inter.

Atlético de Madrid, meanwhile, suffered a lot against a daring Salzburg, who went on to win 2-1 shortly after half-time, with goals from Dominik Szoboszlai (40) and Gerim Berisha (47) to overcome the goal initial of Marcos Llorente (28).

But the promising Joao Felix came to the rescue of Diego Simeone’s team to give Real Madrid three points with a brace in the second half (51 and 84).

The victory allows the Rojiblanco team to move up to second place in Group B with three points, three points behind the leader, Bayern Munich, who beat Lokomtiv Moscow 2-1 on Tuesday in the other key game.

In addition to Bayern, the two Premier League greats, Manchester City and Liverpool, played their role as favorites by winning against Marseille (3-0) and modest Danish Midtjylland (2-0) respectively.

Both lead their groups with 6 full points.
