Impact Rodrygo was deployed as a left-winger this time with Vinicius Junior being rested and was equally productive despite not appearing on the scoresheet.

Impact Rodrygo was credited with the assist in Real Madrid's fourth goal, as he engaged in a beautiful passing sequence with Karim Benzema before the Frenchman scored, although aided by a deflection on Joe Gomez.
