Real Madrid came back against AEK Atenas this Wednesday on matchday four of the Champions League. Koita put the Greek team ahead with an individual play in which he faced Cucurella and took a shot into the unappealable top corner in which Courtois, who had previously prevented a goal with his foot, could do nothing. Madrid then reacted, however, continuing to suffer in defense and Courtois once again avoided the second after a shot from Jovic. Towards half an hour into the game Bellingham scored offside after deflecting a shot from Vinicius, but four minutes later they would tie the game. The Englishman pulled a resource out of his hat with his heel after a Cucurella cross to set the score. The whites came out with more pace after the break and subdued their rival, but were unable to generate clear scoring chances. The round of changes came in both teams and in the 75th, AEK's second fell. A short cross from Koita to the near post found Pilios, who finished at the near post to once again give the Greek team the lead. But Mourinho's team reacted again and a Dumfries cross reached the feet of Mbappé, who made the score 2-2.
