Real Madrid entertained Valencia at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium earlier this afternoon as they looked to earn a good result at home in La Liga. Los Blancos made a slow start to the game and conceded the opening goal in the 15th minute when Mouctar Diakhaby scored for the visitors. Carlo Ancelotti’s men failed to come up with a response and went into the half-time break 1-0 down on the scoreline.
Vinicius Jr. scored the equaliser for the Madrid giants in the 50th minute. However, Hugo Duro ended up scoring a dramatic injury-time winner for Valencia as Real Madrid suffered a poor 2-1 loss at the Bernabeu.
