Real Madrid Send Monaco a Message with 6-1 Champions League Rout
What unfolded at the Santiago Bernabéu tonight was not just a win, it was a statement, loud, ruthless and unmistakably Real Madrid. Under pressure, under scrutiny and under the watch of a demanding home crowd, Los Blancos responded with a crushing 6–1 victory over AS Monaco in the UEFA Champions League.
From the opening minutes, Madrid played with urgency and edge. Kylian Mbappé set the tone early, scoring twice in the first half and reminding everyone why big Champions League nights are his stage. Those goals didn’t just give Madrid control, they released tension inside the stadium. You could feel the shift. Confidence replaced anxiety.
As the game opened up, Madrid’s depth and quality began to overwhelm Monaco. The third goal came through teenage sensation Franco Mastantuono, scoring his first Champions League goal and announcing himself to a global audience. At just 18, his composure spoke volumes about Madrid’s future.

Then came the avalanche. An unfortunate own goal from Thilo Kehrer made it four. VinÃcius Júnior followed with a thunderous strike, celebrated with fire and defiance after recent criticism from the stands. Jude Bellingham closed the night with a calm, clinical finish, the kind of goal that shows intelligence as much as talent.
Monaco did manage a consolation goal through Jordan Teze, briefly exposing Madrid while playing out from the back, but it barely disrupted the flow of the night. Even when Monaco created chances, Thibaut Courtois stood firm, ensuring this was never a contest in doubt.
This result matters far beyond the scoreline. Real Madrid came into this match surrounded by questions. Questions about form. Questions about leadership. Questions about a new coach stepping into the Champions League spotlight. Tonight delivered answers. Clear ones.
It also reshapes the Champions League picture. Madrid now strengthen their position for automatic qualification to the knockout stages, restoring belief and momentum at a crucial point in the season. For Monaco, it’s a sobering reminder of the level required on Europe’s biggest stage, especially away from home.
Above all, this was a reminder of what Real Madrid become when challenged. When doubts grow louder, they respond with nights like this.
Stay with us as we continue to track the Champions League fallout, the reactions from Madrid and Monaco and what this performance means for the road ahead in Europe.
