UCL: Mbappe, Vinicius and Bellingham lead Madrid to a big win over Atalanta
After two defeats in the last rounds of the Champions League, Real Madrid finally scored more than they conceded.
After 10 minutes of the game Mbappe opened the scoring. Although he left the pitch after 36 minutes, most likely due to a recurrence of injury, Vinicius and Bellingham did well in attack without the Frenchman and finished the job for Madrid.
Atalanta for a 5 minutes of the second half lost concentration, for which they paid greatly - Gian Piero Gasperini's side suffered their first home defeat of the European season.
