Real Madrid Prepare For Madrid Derby With 2-0 UCL Win Over Leipzig

September 15, (THEWILL) – In the last minutes of their Tuesday UEFA Champions League match against RB Leipzig, Real Madrid struck twice to secure a typical 2-0 victory.

At the Santiago Bernabeu, the reigning European champions had a difficult day until Federico Valverde snapped the tie with 10 minutes remaining.

In extra time, substitute Marco Asensio, sealed the victory for Los Blancos, putting them at the top of Group F and giving Carlo Ancelotti his 100th triumph in the continent’s highest club championship.

Leipzig lost for the second time in a row, and despite a spirited performance that contrasted with their lacklustre performance against Shakhtar Donetsk, they still have no points on the score board in this campaign.

Up next for the Madrid giants is a Sunday derby away against Atletico Madrid. Also, on the road in the Bundesliga this weekend, RB Leipzig will take on Borussia Monchengladbach.
