Real-Madrid-Naples. Latin Press
By Fausto Triana
Madrid, Oct 4 (Prensa Latina) Hey Jude was once again the war cry of Real Madrid, who made the cross against Naples and is now moving relaxed into the group stage of the Champions League football.
Once again the Englishman Jude Bellingham dressed as a hero and the cry of Hey Jude from the merengue fans was also heard in the Neapolitan city. He gave an assist to the Brazilian Vinicius Junior and scored one of his own, of great quality.
The victory had a dose of suffering, with a penalty awarded against Nacho Fernández for a controversial handball in the area. The ball bounced off his knees and landed in his arms, “he can’t amputate them,” according to former Argentine player and television commentator Jorge Valdano.
A bomb came at the edge of the area from Uruguayan Fede Valverde in the 78th minute, considered by the rival goalkeeper because the ball hit his back, to put the final figures: 2-3.
The detail regarding Bellingham is that he is barely 20 years old and increasingly confirms that his streak of eight goals, six in LaLiga and two in the Champions League, no longer seem like the work of chance.
The unexpected happened on French soil, when Lens beat the powerful Arsenal of England 2-1, while another English team, Manchester United, extended its low hours by falling to Turkish Galatasaray 2-3.
Bayern Munich suffered, finally defeating Danish Copenhagen 2-1, as did Inter Milan, winners 1-0 of Portuguese Benfica.
Real Sociedad shined in their 2-0 success over Austrian Salzburg, with goals from Mikel Oyarzabal and Brais Mendes, and a late slip, including referee controversy, by Sevilla in their two-goal draw with Dutch PSV.
Barcelona, after a debut full of goals (five against Antwerp of Belgium), will find a little more resistance tonight against Portuguese Porto.
Paradoxically, the Blaugranas, in addition to the attack of the Polish Robert Lewandowski, depend a lot this season on two recently hired Portuguese players, Joao Félix and Joao Cancelo, in addition to the 16-year-old youngster Lamine Yamal.
Meanwhile, Atlético de Madrid, led by Frenchman Antoine Griezmann, will clash with Dutch Feyenoord, after equaling one goal in their debut in the European competition with Lazio of Italy.
The new Champions League dates will allow us to see giants like the current monarch in action, Manchester City against Leizpig and PSG against Newcastle.
