Real Madrid beat Roma 4-3 on the second matchday of the Champions after coming back from 3-1 down. The late turnaround was a defining feature of the match, but so was Mourinho’s reaction to Vinicius’s mistake in the move that produced Roma’s 2-1. Madrid went from despair to elation in the final 10 minutes.
Roma’s second goal began with Vinicius losing possession in midfield. He tried to play a backheel pass, but Roma got the ball and Malen finished the move to make it 2-1. On the touchline, Mourinho showed his displeasure by copying Vinicius’s movement, making his frustration at the giveaway plain.
The game then swung dramatically. Two goals behind, Real Madrid fought back to win 4-3. Rüdiger scored the decisive goal in the 90th minute, completing the comeback in the closing moments. Mourinho’s response to the lost ball was one of the match’s notable scenes in a contest whose outcome remained in play until the end.
