Eintracht Frankfurt had the first chance in the match in the 14th minute with Thibaut Courtois saving in a one-on-one from Daichi Kamada. In the 36th minute Kevin Trapp got down to his left to save a low shot from Vinícius Júnior. From the resulting corner Real Madrid went in front when Casemiro headed back from the end line on the right to David Alaba who tapped into the net from close range. [10] Trapp made another save in the 55th minute before Casemiro hit the crossbar from the edge of the box two minutes later. In the 65th minute Vinícius played the ball in from the left to Karim Benzema who made it 2–0 with a shot which the goalkeeper failed to keep out. [11]
