Madrid, Spain— Atletico’s Forward, Julian Alvarez, opened the scoring with a 35th-minute penalty caused by Real Madrid’s Defender, Aurélien Tchouaméni on Saturday, February 8th, 2025. However, Real dominated the second half, with Kylian Mbappé netting the equalizer.
While a win would have granted Real Madrid a three-point lead in the first position, the draw creates a one-point narrow escape that keeps them atop the La Liga table for at least another week.
