Real Madrid’s race for the league title has been painted yellow, because this Saturday Villarreal surprised him at the Santiago Bernabeu stadium with an important victory in the final stretch of the championship, with the Nigerian as the protagonist Chukwueze.
At the White House, it was the locals who led the scoreboard in the first changes. A game over with Asensio’s shot and it misses Pau Torres to celebrate the 1-0 meringue. However, possession was the opposite, exploiting the bands with Chukwueze on the one hand and Álex Baena on the other. It was the former who scored the equalizer in a set-piece where he cut back and left Nacho in a bad position, who was struggling all game.
In the second part, Vinicius also did his job and in singles he beat three opponents and wrote 2-1. Quique Setién moved the bench and brought on Morales, who equalized with almost 10 minutes to go, Chukwueze pulled the rabbit out of the hat: Diagonally inside, on the edge of the white area, he made a left-footed shot that left Courtois (active on the night) with no chance, to celebrate three important points away from La Ceramica.
FINAAAAAAAAL! TRIUMPH AT BERNABÉU (2-3).
Impressive win for Villarreal vs @Real Madrid in real game.
