Federico Valverde reacted sharply to capitalise on an inexplicable error from Josep Martinez, sticking out a leg during the goalkeeper’s ill-fated dribble to make it 2-0.
Hot on the heels of Mbappé’s opening strike, Real Madrid doubled their advantage following an inexplicable blunder from Josep Martinez.
The Inter goalkeeper collected a pass from Pavard, found Fede Valverde bearing down on him rapidly, and tried to turn his way out of danger with a risky piece of skill.
The Spaniard took a touch backwards to evade the press, but the ‘Falcon’ stuck out his left leg to charge down the clearance and divert the gift into the back of the net. Martinez thus becomes the latest goalkeeper to endure a nightmare Bernabéu meltdown, joining the likes of Gianluigi Donnarumma and Sven Ulreich…
It was a deflating blow for the ‘Nerazzurri’, who had started brightly only to be ruthlessly punished by their own costly errors.
