00:00THE CHAMPIONS!
00:30...in the UEFA Champions League since Manchester City demolished them in the semi-finals back in May 2020.
00:41On the ball again.
00:48Rudiger, looking to go direct towards Bellingham.
00:52Thiago Santos, he's been pressurised by the England international,
00:57who snapped him with a challenge.
00:59Here's Vinicius Junior, and there's the first save that Lucas Chevalier is forced to make tonight,
01:06and I would suggest it's probably not the last.
01:08No, brilliant challenge from Bellingham, that, poking it towards Vinicius Junior.
01:13The last thing you want to do, doesn't quite catch it as well as he would want to.
01:20Another terrific pass, Kamavinga.
01:23Hendrik up, and Hendrik running.
01:26And still Hendrik!
01:28Denied at the last by Chevalier.
01:31Who's there first?
01:33This is Shekhova.
01:39David!
01:41Muniz saves once, and Muniz saves twice.
01:52Oh, that's kept in there.
01:53He'd stopped Carvajal late, thought he was out.
02:03But it wasn't.
02:11Shekhova.
02:14Cabela lost his footing, he felt he was fouled, the referee agrees.
02:19Cabela and Shekhova.
02:21It's Shekhova, it's straight into the wall, Kamavinga.
02:24They want handball.
02:26But it was hit hard, and it was hit straight at him.
02:29How far out were the odds?
02:31Right on the stroke of half-time.
02:37There's the signal, there's the cheer.
02:42You know what usually happens in these circumstances.
02:49The arm is out, the arm is away from the body.
02:52Plenty of boxes are ticked for handball to be given here.
02:57Yeah, he's not going to need long.
03:03Penalty!
03:18Jonathan David for Lille, scores!
03:25And these are words that not many thought they would hear tonight.
03:29Lille lead Real Madrid.
03:36Yeah, it's a handball, we argue so often about the rights and wrongs,
03:40but I don't think there's much doubt about that.
03:42And there's not much doubt about the spot-kick, what about that?
03:45The player in amongst the goals, the player on form.
03:50Bubbling with confidence.
04:05Oh, Vinicius might get there, good save by Chevalier.
04:08Hendricks put it wide.
04:11So close to an immediate leveller.
04:15Yeah.
04:17Penalty's certainly going to draw them out of the shells,
04:20Real Madrid, because they are...
04:22Mojoa Stadium, you can hardly hear yourself think.
04:26That is because the home side lead, a Camavinga handball,
04:29and a perfect penalty from Jonathan David,
04:32and a half-time lead for Lille.
04:35Lille 1-0 Real Madrid.
04:42Now Thiago Santos.
04:45Plenty of red shirts around him.
04:48Zagroba is one.
04:50Zagroba!
04:52A worthy effort from the Kosovan.
04:56Carlo Ancelotti does this.
05:04The second season of Real Madrid now.
05:08Mbappé in his first.
05:11Passing out to Zagroba.
05:16Still he carries Zagroba.
05:19Into Jonathan David!
05:23Didn't quite catch it as he would have liked.
05:25Didn't quite have the confidence to take it across to his left.
05:29Maybe thought Chou and Mane would have got there.
05:41Mbappé.
05:45Modric.
05:48Juan Garcia.
05:59A little touch by Carvajal, here's Modric.
06:02Vinicius Junior.
06:11Modric.
06:14Here's Vinicius.
06:17Goulart and Mbappé wait in the middle.
06:19Vinicius.
06:21Gudmundsson sweeps him behind.
06:30He did well, didn't he, there, Zagroba?
06:32He knew he was trying to park on his own side.
06:34Guardi has lost out there.
06:36Mbappé to Vinicius.
06:41To Goulart.
06:42And glanced forward by Rüdiger.
06:44And they can't force it in.
06:49Wow, that looked for all the world, like the Real Madrid equaliser.
06:53Rüdiger thought so, everyone thought so.
06:56But Lille managed to get it away.
06:59Yeah, it's as close as they've come,
07:01as good as they've been on the foot for Real Madrid.
07:06To take it.
07:11Vinicius Junior.
07:14Schumanni.
07:16Valverde.
07:20Goulart.
07:21Rüdiger.
07:22And again denied.
07:24And over.
07:27Well, Lunen had a top save early on in this match
07:31and I think Chevalier just pulled out a similar one.
07:35Same one.
07:36Rüdiger's part of the attack permanently now.
07:40Mbappé.
07:42Carvajal.
07:47Now to Goulart.
07:50Modric.
07:53Modric, what a ball, Goulart!
07:56Chevalier able to get down the middle.
07:59And it's in.
08:01And it's in.
08:02What a ball, Goulart!
08:04Chevalier able to get down and make the save.
08:08Shouldn't have been allowed to.
08:10The old to the young here.
08:13The goal's gaping.
08:15Begging to be banned.
08:18Concentration has been superb so far
08:22but these are the moments, the seconds that can really test you.
08:26Vinicius Junior.
08:28Goulart.
08:29Carvajal.
08:30Look at all those white shirts waiting in the middle.
08:32Carvajal hangs it up.
08:35Chevalier.
08:39One of the most routine bits of housekeeping he'll do tonight.
08:43We're greeted like a Chevalier in Shining Isle here by Lille.
08:51The first ever meeting between Lille and Real Madrid
08:55is one that these players, that these fans will never ever forget.
09:02Real Madrid came to Northern France unbeaten in 36 games in all competitions.
09:10Unbeaten throughout the whole of last season in the UEFA Champions League.
09:25Real Madrid.
09:27Real Madrid.
09:29Real Madrid.
09:31Real Madrid.
