Beginners in the Bundesliga have had their best opening of a rather timid 45 minutes. Christopher Nkunku and Emil Forsberg became close. But as the game moved towards loot sharing, Real finally kicked into gear and took the lead with just over 10 minutes left.
Vinicius came in neatly before picking Valverde with a sharp, low pass across the penalty area, and the Uruguayan collected himself before making an unstoppable effort past Peter Gulacsi’s desperate dive.
The points were then sealed at injury time as Toni Kroos’s gushing low corner got home wonderfully by Asensio – the Spaniard glided into the far post for the first time with his foot.
