Real Madrid have not had everything their own way in their first league phase match of the 2024-25 Champions League, against Stuttgart. They did open the scoring, although they were pegged back. However, with not long to go until the full time whistle is blown, their lead has been restored.

It was Kylian Mbappe that broke the deadlock, as he scored less than 30 seconds into the second half. It was a dream moment for him on his Champions League debut for Real Madrid, although his effort was cancelled out 20 minutes later by Stuttgart's Deniz Undav.

Fortunately for Real Madrid, they've re-taken the lead. It's come from Antonio Rudiger, who headed home Luka Modric's fine corner.

It's a big moment from Rudiger, who scores against his former club. It's now up to Real Madrid to ensure that they do not let this advantage slip, as they aim for a good start to their Champions League title defence.
