Real Madrid's 4-2 fightback win over Napoli

With one round of games remaining, Real Madrid secured the top place in Champions League Group C with a 4-2 fightback win over Napoli on Wednesday thanks to two late goals by 19-year-old Nico Paz and Joselu. The 14-time champion kept up its flawless record and has already qualified for the round of 16. With five games played, it has eight more points than the Italian champion, at 15. In order to advance to the next round, Napoli, with seven points, must draw with Braga, who is in third place with four points, in their final match. Union Berlin is in last place with two points following their Wednesday 1-1 tie with Braga.

Real had a strong start, but the visitor's swift counterattack caught them off guard. In the ninth minute, Giovanni Di Lorenzo helped Giovanni Simeone open the score with a close-range effort that initially appeared to have been saved by goalie Andryi Lunin.
