Nacho saves Madrid and Lucas puts them 1-0 up in same passage of play

Real Madrid's first goal of 2021 was scored by Lucas Vázquez. The Galician headed in a measured cross from Marco Asensio at the back post after a vertical counter-attack.

The passage of play was spectacular because, at the start of it, Nacho saved a one on one from Iago Aspas with Courtois.

The passage of play continued with an explosive Marco Asensio, who arrived until the byline and put a great inviting cross to the back post.

Lucas appeared from behind to head easily into the net and end Los Blancos' perfect passage of play. That was Madrid's first goal in the new year.
