Real Madrid have slipped into their usual rhythm, moving the ball around with ease and staking early control. Valencia aren’t bothered, they’ve dropped back, stacked the defence, and look ready to spring forward on the break. No surprises yet, just both sides settling into roles they know well.
Mbappe broke through and found himself clean through on goal, but couldn't quite get the ball under control with only the keeper to beat. Just as the chance fizzled out, up went the flag, offside. Wouldn't have counted, but a missed opportunity all the same.
Kylian Mbappe brought down by Cesar Tarrega inside the box. Penalty. But Vinicius Jr's tame attempt from the spot was blocked by Giorgi Mamardashvili.
Diego Lopez delivers a teasing corner and Mouctar Diakhaby rises highest to power a header past Fran Gonzalez. Nothing the keeper could’ve done—Valencia draw first blood at the Bernabeu.
Stunning passage of play. Moments after Vinicius' missed penalty, visiting Valencia stunned the packed Santiago Bernabeu crowd with the 15th-minute opener. Mouctar Diakhaby connects his header to beat Thibaut Courtois's stand-in, Fran Gonzalez. Diego Lopez, the provider from the corner.
Los Blancos have it all to do in the second half, as Los Che lead by a slender but vital one-goal margin at the end of the first game. Diakhaby's 15th-minute goal is the difference at the Santiago Bernabeu currently; let's see how Kylian Mbappe and Co respond after the break.
No substitution from either side upon resumption of play post the interval. Valencia forward Umar Sadiq is booked in the 46th minute for stepping on Madrid midfielder Federico Valverde라이브 바카라 foot.
Vinicius has put the missed penalty in the 10th minute behind him in style. Los Blancos' star striker finds himself in the right place at the right time and taps the ball in from close range to equalise for Madrid in the 50th minute, and the Bernabeu erupts.
Around 19 minutes of normal time remain. Mbappe passes one in to Valverde in the box, who takes a superb crack at the Valencia goal but custodian Giorgi Mamardashvili pulls out a fantastic save to deny Los Blancos. This was easily the best save of the night and stopped Madrid from scoring a potential winner that would serve them well before Barcelona take on Real Betis, later in the night.
Real Madrid really need the full three points tonight to mount a title challenge to Catalan giants FC Barcelona, who sit at the summit with 66 points. Three minutes of normal time remain for the hosts to find a winner, before added time.
Late drama at the Santiago Bernabeu as Hugo Duro snatches a 94th-minute winner for Valencia. A powerful header from the forward at the fag end of the encounter spells doom to Real Madrid's title hopes. They remain three points behind leaders FC Barcelona, who take on Real Betis at 12:30am IST and stand a chance to open up a six-point gap with a win.
