Five minutes after conceding, Vincius drew a penalty when he was fouled inside the area by Jon Aramburu. He stepped up and calmly converted from the spot to restore Madrid’s lead. The Brazilian showed composure under pressure, sending the goalkeeper the wrong way and putting the home side back in control.
Madrid extended its advantage in the second half with a stunning strike from Federico Valverde. The Uruguayan midfielder unleashed a powerful shot that found the top corner, leaving Remiro with no chance. Vincius later added his second goal of the night from another penalty, sealing the 4-1 result and putting the finishing touches on a comprehensive victory.
