Real may be going through a difficult period, albeit leading La Liga, but registering a goal past them in their backyard remains a dream for many.<\/p>\n<p>Emmanuel Dennis is one such individual. Going up against the formidable duo of Sergio Ramos and Rapha\u00ebl Varane, whilst leading Club Brugge&#8217;s line alongside Percy Tau, could easily have been an undaunting experience. However, no such anxiety existed, at least in the opening 20 minutes.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-conversation=\"none\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">39&#8242; ? We&#8217;re all awake, this is no dream. Dennis just scored the second goal of the evening for us.

A tidy cross from Tau would find his strike partner, whose miskick nevertheless found it way past the rooted Thibaut Courtois. However, what followed was the waiting game, VAR check over and Club Brugge were in dreamland.<\/p>\n<p>From that moment, they started to believe, no longer overawed \u2013 playing the occasion rather than the name. Just over five minutes before the half-time interval, Club Brugge and Dennis were bearing down on Courtois&#8217; goal and knowing they needed to convert any opportunity that came their way, the Nigerian marksman bagged his second of the game. Incredible scenes.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Loser: Luka Modric<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>What a difference a year makes. Luka Modric&#8217;s 2018 may very well be looked back on as the start of a natural decline.<\/p>\n<p>The 34-year-old Croatian midfielder, who swept all individual awards before him, is not quite yet over the hill but he&#8217;s clearly lost something. A shadow of his former self if you will.<\/p>\n<p>Modric remains a tidy passer, though other elements of his game now seem to be ebbing away, such as alertness. It was his error that ultimately led to Club Brugge doubling their lead.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Winner: Paris Saint-Germain<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1083812\" src=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2019\/04\/11182240\/PA-42216291-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"3080\" height=\"2053\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2019\/04\/11182240\/PA-42216291-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2019\/04\/11182240\/PA-42216291-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2019\/04\/11182240\/PA-42216291-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2019\/04\/11182240\/PA-42216291-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2019\/04\/11182240\/PA-42216291-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2019\/04\/11182240\/PA-42216291-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2019\/04\/11182240\/PA-42216291-66x44.jpg 66w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 3080px) 100vw, 3080px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Thomas Tuchel would have been keeping a close eye on events in Madrid ahead of his side&#8217;s test in Istanbul against Galatasaray and this result would have no doubt pleased him.<\/p>\n<p>If there was ever an incentive to go for all three points, here it was.
