In the 17th minute, Real Madrid saw their opponents Atalanta reduced to 10 men in Bergamo.
Time was passing and Zinedine Zidane's men were unable to create danger. Then, Real Madrid's star of the night, Ferland Mendy, appeared.
The French full.back, who Freuler fouled to see his red card, scored just before the end when it looked it would end goalless.
The former Lyon man got the ball on the edge of the area, looked towards goal and hit a sensational curling shot with his right leg.
The Frenchman's strike ended up in the back of the net and Atalanta keeper did not see it until late. That is why he reacted late and by the time he saw it, the ball was past him.
