Vinicius Junior and Real Madrid, the defending champions of the UEFA Champions League, succumbed to their second defeat in this season’s UEFA Champions League. This was their first loss at home this season in the competition. After the game, AC Milan posted a Tik Tok where Fikayo Tomori won the ball from Vinicius Junior and put him to sleep. It was a classic way to roast one of the best players in the world after their emphatic victory.
AC Milan's thrilling 3-1 victory at the Bernabeu was Real Madrid's second loss during the UEFA Champions League during the current season. Vinicius Junior's penalty was insufficient as Malick Thiaw and Tijjani Reijnders' goals gave the Italians a commanding three points, while Alvaro Morata made a comeback to torment his former team in the Spanish capital.
AC Milan grabbed the lead with Thiaw's header, as Real Madrid went behind for the third straight game. He scored his initial goal for the team by finding a gap between Eder Militao and Aurelien Tchouameni.
After Vinicius drew a penalty after Emerson Royal's awkward challenge, Madrid quickly responded with a penalty kick from Vinicius. Notably, the Brazilian took the penalty rather than Kylian Mbappe and then clipped it down in the center.
AC Milan clinch epic victory over Real Madrid
But Morata appeared to be launching his new team again in front of the crowd, so there would be additional drama before the break. Andriy Lunin stopped Rafael Leao's attempt, however Morata remained the only player aware, and he responded fast enough to score his seventh goal versus his former team.
Reijnders gave AC Milan a third goal to silence the Santiago Bernabeu, giving them an incredible two-goal lead. In the closing minutes, Madrid gave it their all in an attempt to rally, but Paulo Fonseca's team held on for a remarkable victory.
Madrid has lost for the second time in a row and has given up seven goals. They overcame a deficit of two goals to defeat Borussia Dortmund in spectacular manner in their most recent Champions League match, but Tuesday's storyline was completely different.
