UEFA Champions League Matchday 4 was filled with goals. Real Madrid won 6-0, while Spurs also won 0-4 away from home. Take a look at the highlights and results.
Matchday 4 of the ongoing UEFA Champions League turned out to be an exciting affair for football fans across the globe. The likes of Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, Juventus, PSG and defending champions Liverpool all registered comfortable victories in their respective outings. Let's look at some of the most interesting results of Matchday 4 including the dramatic 4-4 draw at Stamford Bridge on Tuesday night.
Champions League results: Real Madrid vs Galatasaray
Move aside Vinicius Jr., there's a new Brazilian in town and his name is - Rodrygo Goes. The 18-year old summer signing announced himself on the grandest stage as he bagged a hat-trick in the 6-0 drubbing of Galatasaray at the Santiago Bernabeu on Wednesday night. In doing so, Rodrygo became the second-youngest player to score a hat-trick in the Champions League after Real Madrid legend, Raul Gonzalez.
Champions League results: Chelsea vs Ajax
It was one hell of a game at Stamford Bridge on Tuesday night as Frank Lampard's team came from two goals down to secure a draw against Ajax. The 2018-19 Champions League semi-finalists were unfortunate to receive two consecutive red cards in the 68th minute which turned the tide in favour of the home team. In the end, the scoreboard read 4-4 with the Blues celebrating as if they'd won the game.
Champions League results: Borussia Dortmund vs Inter Milan
Inter Milan were content at the end of the first 45 minutes in Germany as they led by 2-0. However, Lucien Favre and Co. had different plans and scored three goals in the second half to secure all three points at Signal Iduna Park. Real Madrid loanee Achraf Hakimi scored a brace and now has four goals in the UEFA Champions League this season.
Champions League results: Red Star Belgrade vs Tottenham
South Korea star Son Heung-Min was left distraught and looked inconsolable after Andre Gomes' injury over the weekend in the Premier League. The Tottenham Hotspur star recovered well and scored a brace as his side made their way to a 0-4 away win against Red Star Belgrade on Wednesday night. Tottenham look set to make the knockout stages this season too, can they repeat last season's run all the way to the final once again?
UEFA Champions League Matchday 5 is scheduled for November 26 and 27, 2019 and the next set of games will give football fans a clear picture of which teams are likely to qualify for the Round of 16 this season.
