Real Madrid Confidencial Salzburg's Fans Show GreatSsportsmanship with a Grand Gesture at Bernabéu
RB Salzburg's supporters had a very emotional gesture with one of the Meringue players
Real Madrid defeated RB Salzburg 5-1 at the Santiago Bernabéu, taking a crucial step in the group stage of the Champions League.
With this victory, the Whites have already secured their continuation in the competition, something that seemed almost guaranteed before the game.
However, besides avoiding elimination in the group stage, Real Madrid is still fighting for a spot among the top eight. Although it's challenging, the Whites will have to thrash Brest and hope for several setbacks to achieve the feat.
A well-controlled game
RB Salzburg started the game quite boldly, but Real Madrid quickly took control with long possessions. The Whites found the first goal with a ball from Vinícius that Rodrygo finished into the net.
Several minutes later, the Brazilian scored his brace with a great shot following a backheel from Jude Bellingham. Carlo Ancelotti's team practically decided the match in just one half.
From there, the second forty-five minutes were a walk in the park. Kylian Mbappé scored the third thanks to a gift from the visiting goalkeeper. Finally, Vinícius, with two great goals, rounded off the night for the Madridists.
A moment of honor from the RB Salzburg fans
As already happened against UD Las Palmas in LaLiga, Carlo Ancelotti decided to give David Alaba several minutes. The Austrian defender came on with the match already decided in the 64th minute. He was seen with a certain confidence, something that pleased the coaching staff and his teammates.
With the final whistle and with players from both teams leaving the field, the visiting fans left a unique moment. As Mario Cortegana, a journalist at "The Athletic," commented, RB Salzburg's supporters chanted David Alaba's name.
Just as the defender was leaving, the visiting fans, who share nationality with David Alaba, sent their affection to the player. Undoubtedly, one of the most beautiful gestures of the match. RB Salzburg's supporters, like those of Real Madrid, are glad that the player can be back.
