It was expected from the moment of the draw for the group stage and tonight (Wednesday) Real Madrid completed its mission when it finished in first place in Group 6 in the Champions League after a huge home victory over Celtic - 1:5.
Without Karim Benzema, who is not 100 percent fit and started on the bench, and Orleans Tshoumani, who was rested, the European champions did not have too much trouble against Liel Abde and his friends.
Luka Modric with a penalty (6), Rodrigo with another penalty (21) and additional goals from Marco Asensio (51), Vinicius Junior (61) and Federico Valverde (71) finished the group stage for the host in a great way.
Josip Juranovic missed a penalty (35) for the Scots after Liel Abde was fouled in the box by Perlan Mendy and Jota (84) curled in a superb free-kick towards the end.
