#4 CSKA Moscow 1-0 Real Madrid

Benzema looks dejected after Real Madrid were beaten 1-0 by CSKA Moscow in their Group G Champions League fixture.

The reigning European champions Real Madrid were stunned by an unassuming CSKA Moscow side with a 1-0 loss yesterday.

Los Blancos did not have the best form coming into the fixture. Having lost 3-0 to Sevilla and playing out a draw against city rivals Atletico Madrid, in their last two La Liga fixtures.

Well, they were without their commanding captain Sergio Ramos and star player Gareth Bale, sidelined due to injury, but still to see the winners from last season go down against a club like CSKA was not a great sight.

After the Everton loanee Vlasic blasted home a goal in just 65 seconds, it all went downhill for the Spanish club. And even the reduction of CSKA to 10 men and introduction of The Best FIFA Men's Player Modric couldn't turn the match around in their favor.
