RECOMMENDED VIDEOS AND ACTIONS
Rest at the Bernabéu!!! Real Madrid and Rayo Vallecano head to the locker room tied 0-0. The home side pressed forward after the break, with Bellingham driving proceedings and Vinícius Junior continually posing problems on the left flank. Rayo set up a compact defensive block, trying to curb the Madrid attack and snatch opportunities on the counter. The whites still found it difficult to finish and registered twelve attempts, only two of which hit the target. A one-on-one involving Fede Valverde after losing a ball in midfield created the clearest chance for Madrid. Rayo Vallecano tightened their defense and focused on gaps to close space for their rival. The match was marked by a dip in ball retention, with several turnovers early on.
