Real Madrid made light work of Girona at the Santiago Bernabéu, securing a 2-0 victory in a match that never truly tested Carlo Ancelotti’s men. Luka Modric was the standout performer, delivering a vintage display capped off by a stunning opening goal—an outrageous volley from outside the box that left the Girona goalkeeper helpless.
Madrid controlled the game with authority, keeping their defensive line high and rarely allowing Girona a sight of goal. The visitors struggled to break through, failing to mount any significant attacking threat.
Vinícius Jr sealed the result late in the second half, finishing off a slick counterattack after a brilliant exchange with Kylian Mbappé in transition. The Brazilian’s cool finish put the game beyond doubt and capped Madrid’s dominance.
