MADRID — In a familiar scene, Real Madrid fans jumped to their feet and cheered loudly after a superb goal by the No. That was the impression Roma coach Eusebio Di Francesco got after seeing his team get dominated by Madrid. “I have a lot of very good players and they have been playing with great attitude,” Madrid coach Julen Lopetegui said. Bale and Diaz are not the only players helping fans forget the Portugal forward. And next year Madrid will likely be able to use another promising Brazilian forward, Rodrygo, who was acquired for nearly the same price as Vinicius from Brazilian team Santos.
