Real Madrid Draw a Blank in Back-To-Back Matches
It was a start full of intensity as expected, with both teams having long-range shots. Arda Guler stunned the gloves of goalkeeper Augusto Batalla early, as Los Blancos looked dangerous around the box.
The first big chance fell to Vinicius Jr., whose snapshot was brilliantly saved by Batalla in the 21st minute. After the ball pinged around the area, it fell at the Brazilian's feet, who fired into the corner, but it was kept out. A minute later, Raul Asencio should have scored, but he glanced a free header just wide of the post.
Although the best chances fell to the away side, Los Franjirrojos looked dangerous on the counter and had Real scrambling a few times without any end product. With the score at 0-0 at the half, it was all to play for in the second 45 minutes.

It was a slow start to the second half, but ten minutes in, Real Madrid began to turn the screw. Guler and Kylian Mbappe are coming close with long-range efforts, while Jude Bellingham nearly squeezed in an effort from a tight angle.
The game began to get stretched as Los Blancos pushed for a goal. It led to Rayo's first big chance, Álvaro García firing over the bar when he should have hit the target. A couple of minutes later, the ball was up the other end, Valverde seeing a shot saved by the home goalkeeper.
As the game drifted into the final ten minutes, the away team tried to push for the three points. However, they could not find that one chance to steal the win. It was the first time this season they have had back-to-back games without a win.
