Still in shock from their crushing defeat in La Liga against FC Barcelona during the Clasico (0-4) in front of their home crowd, the Merengues suffered their second defeat of the season in the Champions League.
The goals of the Italians, who catch up with Real in the standings (6 points) and thus relaunch themselves in the race for qualification, were scored by Malick Thiaw (12th), the former Real, Alvaro Morata (39th) and the Dutchman Tijani Reijnders (73rd).
Meanwhile, the Brazilian Vinicius Jr had tied the teams (1-1) by converting a penalty with a daring panenka in the 23rd minute. This was the only time where goalkeeper Mike Maignan was found wanting, despite a second Merengue goal being refused for offside (81st).
