Real Madrid Edges Benfica; PSG Triumphs Over Monaco
In the UEFA Champions League knockout playoff held on Tuesday night, Real Madrid achieved a narrow 1-0 victory against Benfica. The match was largely uneventful until Vinicius Junior scored early in the second half with a stunning curled effort.
Following his goal, Vinicius faced racial abuse, leading to a 10-minute suspension of the game. Jose Mourinho received two yellow cards during the match.
This victory allowed Real Madrid to avenge their previous 4-2 defeat to Benfica. In another match, Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) staged a remarkable comeback against Ligue 1 rivals Monaco, winning 3-2 after initially trailing by two goals.
Additionally, Borussia Dortmund secured a 2-0 victory over Atalanta in the same round of matches.
