The first half starting off with a yellow card from Diaz didn’t deter Madrid especially with Vini’s strike in the first quarter already. Despite Madrid having majority of possession only one goal stands before half time.

The second half kicks off with an equaliser from Rayo bringing the scoreboard now to 1-1.
