Real Madrid, winner at Liverpool 5-2, took an option on qualification for the quarter-finals of the Champions League after a match of rare intensity on Tuesday at Anfield.

Real Madrid, quickly led 2-0 after 14 minutes of play on goals from Nunez (4th) and Salah, punished a Liverpool team whose defense literally disintegrated.

The Spanish champions made the difference thanks to doubles from Vinicius Junior (21st, 36th) and the inevitable Karim Benzema (55th, 67th) and an achievement from Militao (47th).
