The Bats had 2-goal lead but Los Blancos won the point in the end.

Valencia and Real Madrid finished 2-2 at Estadio de Mestalla as Los Blancos came from 2 goals down, extending their undefeated series in the league away from home to 10 matches.

Hugo Duro gave the lead to the home side in the 27th minute after Fran Perez’s assist. Only 3 minutes later, Roman Yaremchuk doubled the Bats lead and they were very close to had 2-goal lead after the 1st half but Vinicius Junior netted in the additional time in the 1st half after Rodrygo’s assist to make Real Madrid trail only 1 goal.

Vini Jr. was the hero for Los Blancos as he scored his 2nd goal to tie the match in the 76th minute after Brahim Diaz’s assist.

Mouctar Diakhaby suffered a horrific leg injury and was replaced in the 89th minute by Cenk Ozkacar.

However, Valencia received a penalty in the 92nd minute, but after a VAR review, the referee decided to overrule it.

The most scandalous moment in the game came in the 100th minute when Manzano blew the final whistle just as Díaz crossed for Jude as the English midfielder headed it into the Bats net. Los Blancos were livid as Bellingham received a red card for his protests after the end of the match.

Today’s draw means that Girona have the opportunity to move within 4 points to the 1st place in La Liga if they beat Mallorca. Barcelona also can move within 6 points from Los Blancos with a victory against Athletic Bilbao.
