The first half ended scoreless, with Madrid finding it difficult to make any serious impact in attack.
However, Valverde set off on a dashing run down the right flank from where he pulled out a cross for Vinicius to tap in for the opening goal, and a 0-1 lead at the 56th minute.
Four minutes later, Eden Hazard picked out an unmarked Modric with a pass, which he side-footed into the far corner of the post to increase Madrid’s lead to 0-2.
Eden Hazard scored the third goal for Madrid off Carvajal’s cross to complete the rout to 0-3 in the 77th minute, and despite spirited efforts by the hosts, the scores remained the same until the final whistle, as Madrid came away with a convincing win away.
