UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE | BAD NIGHT FOR REAL MADRID & VALENCIA CF

UEFA Champions League action tonight with REAL MADRID & VALENCIA CF down for Group games. Here is a summary & final results along with goalscorers.

Real Madrid starting XI

REAL MADRID travelled to Russia to play CSKA MOSCOW & lost 1 - 0. The only goal came from VLASIC in the 2 min after a terrible mistake from Real Madrid midfielder TONI KROOS who passed back to his goalkeeper Navas to see the ball intercepted by the Russian player.

Real Madrid without Isco, Ramos, Marcelo & Modric on the bench started with the above XI which included the debut of young Reguilon. 

Real Madrid are not in fine form as their local Liga performance shows & tonight they suffered to find the goal & the equalizer. Although the Spanish Team bettered in the 2º half hitting bar & posts (with Mariano & Modric latter coming on) they were not able to penetrate the Moscow defence. The Russian team even found moments to have a chance at a second goal but Navas made the important saves. 

A lost that will hurt, bring doubts & pressure on Coach Julen Lopetegui back in Madrid

VALENCIA CF travelled to England for the Group match against MANCHESTER UNITED. Both teams are in poor form in their domestic Leagues & tonight's final result ended in a 0 - 0 draw.

Valencia CF created numerous goal opportunities during the game but failed to finish off their chances in the final metres. The Spanish Club perhaps deserved more but a draw was the penalty for not being effective upfront. 

Tomorrow more Champions League games with FC Barcelona & At Madrid scheduled for their Group games.
