The meringues are positioned as the provisional leaders of the Spanish league.
The Real Madrid they beat Rayo 2-1 in an anguished, almost miraculous way, after having been able to win with some clarity against a Vallecano team that touched the tie.
The Italian Carlo Ancelotti’s team, who stands as provisional leader waiting for Real Sociedad to play this Sunday against Osasuna, had everything in favor with the goals in the first period of the German Toni Kroos (m.14) and of the French Karim Benzema (m.38) and had chances to extend his advantage.
He did not take advantage of them. The Lightning did not give up. Colombian Radamel Falcao left at 69 minutes and at 76 he shortened distances, shortly before retiring injured at 80. In the end, in full harassment of Andoni Iraola’s men, he had the draw, but Toni Kroos saved Real Madrid under the sticks that he was again whistled at times by his fans. (D)
