Real Madrid stages extraordinary comeback to beat Roma 4-3 in Champions League

Real Madrid's 4-3 victory maintains pressure in the Champions League new league phase format after their opening win over Inter Milan, while Roma remains winless with a draw to Fenerbahce. The result illustrates the unpredictability of the restructured competition; Roma controlled the match until the 84th minute before three consecutive corner-kick goals reversed the outcome in stoppage time. Mbappé's milestone—youngest to 100 Champions League appearances—signals a generational shift in the competition's top performers, with implications for Real Madrid's trophy trajectory and roster value.
