Real Madrid have numerous examples of taking away points from opponents by scoring at the end. It is said that before the last whistle Bazar did not celebrate the victory in front of Real. Because - no one has given more proof than Real to take the match by themselves at any time. But this time the city rival Atletico Madrid took away the points from that Real.
Real Madrid took the lead with Brahim Diaz's goal in the 20th minute at the Santiago Bernabeu on Sunday (February 4). Atletico could not repay that lead. However, Marcos Llorente gave Atletico a point by scoring just a minute away from Real's victory. Despite a 1-1 draw, Diego Simeone's team left the field with the joy of victory.
Even after the draw, however, Real Madrid remains at the top of the La Liga points list. After playing 23 matches, Carlo Ancelotti's team has 58 points. Girona is number two with 56 points from equal matches. Barcelona is third with 50 points. Fourth-placed Atletico have 48 points.
Real Madrid suffered a big blow before going down to play the match. Vinicius Jr. suffered a shoulder injury while warming up. So coach Ancelotti did not field him. But Diaz, who got a place in the eleven instead of Vinny, scored a goal and put a smile on Real's face.
