In the second half, Real Madrid came out determined to seek victory. At minute 65, Denmark’s Signe Bruun scored the second goal for the visitors after a great team play that included an assist from Caicedo. The white team continued to press and extended their lead in injury time (93′) thanks to Alba Redondo, who scored the third goal to practically seal the victory.
Twente tried to react in the final minutes and managed to pull one back in the 94th minute with a goal from Te Brake, but it was not enough to equalize the score.
With this result, Real Madrid Femenino reinforces its position in the tournament and Linda Caicedo continues to establish herself as one of the team’s most notable figures.
