Real Madrid put on an emphatic show at the Santiago Bernabeu, sweeping aside newcomers Malaga 4-0 in a one-sided contest. The Spanish giants effectively settled the outcome before half-time, producing a ruthless attacking display.

The star of the evening was undoubtedly Jude Bellingham. The England international opened the scoring after a superb solo run before completing his brace with a well-taken headed rebound. Kylian Mbappe then put the result beyond doubt, finishing off a cross from Trent Alexander-Arnold to make it 3-0.

Real Madrid continued to push forward despite their commanding advantage, and the fourth goal arrived late in the game. Arda Guler produced a composed finish after being set up by Vinicius Junior to complete the rout.
