Real Madrid repelled as Espanyol Hold Firm to ensure memorable victory

The pressure was at Real Madrid to answer after Atlético de Madrid won against Mallorca earlier in the day, but they have not been able to meet. The leaders of the League had the opportunity to defeat Espanyol in the front stadium on the stage, but none were taken, and they were made to pay since the hosts obtained a famous 1-0 victory.

It was a terrible beginning for the procedures for Real Madrid, since they also lost Antonio Rudiger at the beginning of the injury. However, they sought to leave that disappointment behind them to find the opening goal, and had the ball at the bottom of the network in the first half courtesy of Vinicius Junior, but was ruled out after a foul in the accumulation by Kylian Mbappe.

In the second half, and Real Madrid was frustrated again in his attempt to find the progress. Vinicius, Mbappe, Rodrygo and Jude Bellingham had opportunities, but a combination of poor finishes and excellent goalkeepers of Joan García kept visitors at bay.

In the end, it was Espanyol who scored. A quick counterattack saw Antoniu Roca play the ball in par, Omar the Hilali picked up in the overlap and his deep cross was Volley in the back post for his opposite support Carlos Romero, who could have luck so that the Launch after a wild challenge in MBAPPE previously in half was only administered as a yellow card, despite Carlo Ancelotti’s protests.

Real Madrid accumulated the pressure in the final stages since seven minutes of detention time were added, but in the end, they could not find the equalizer. It is a result that means that Espanyol moves from the descent zone with those three points, while the whites remain away from Atleti, whom they play in the Derby in Madrid next weekend.
