The reigning champions of Spain – Real Madrid made another wrong step in their goal to retain the title as they drew Real Betis 0-0 away on Sunday night.
Karim Benzema scored inside 12 minutes after a very good taken free kick, but VAR checked the play and saw a handball, denying the away side from an early lead.
Just four minutes into the second half Benzema had a great chance to get his goal, but missed a sitter, as Bravo made a miraculous save. Rodrygo fired the ball over the post in the 61st minute after great pass from Valverde.

Real Madrid continued to pressured the opposition and in the 76th minute Vinicius darted into the penalty area to latch on to a pass a show low, but once again Bravo proved his worth.
With the draw, Los Blancos are now nine points off the leader Barcelona, while Betis sit fifth with 41.
