Vinicius Junior brought in a precious goal to help Real Madrid come from behind and defeat AC Milan.
AC Milan led Real Madrid by two goals after the first half. The duo of Fikayo Tomori and Luka Romero were the scorers for the Serie A representatives.
At the start of the second half, Coach Carlo Ancelotti made a series of personnel changes but decided to keep Federico Valverde on the pitch. It proved to be a wise decision as the Uruguayan midfielder completed a brace within two minutes, leveling the score for Real.
Vinicius Junior, who came on as a substitute at the beginning of the second half, showcased his class with the winning goal, securing a 3-2 victory for Los Blancos.
In the 84th minute, Real thwarted Milan's attack. Luka Modric looked up before delivering a long pass, transitioning Real from defense to attack.
Vinicius demonstrated impressive speed to receive Modric's pass. The 2000-born star successfully outpaced the opponent, leaving Milan on the verge of conceding a goal.
Facing the goalkeeper, Vinicius calmly slotted the ball into the net, marking his first goal in the iconic number 7 jersey for Real. With Karim Benzema having left Bernabeu, Vinicius promises to become the main striker and a crucial source of goals for Real in the upcoming season.
Against Milan, Jude Bellingham made his debut. He started the match and played as the number 10 in the 4-1-2-1-2 formation implemented by Ancelotti. The midfielder born in 2003 played for 64 minutes before making way for Nico Paz.
