Real turns everything around in the last ten minutes and takes the lead in La Liga

A signature. A special one. The luck of champions. Call it what you want but it’s always the same with Real. Sometimes, often even, he plays badly, falls behind… but wins in the end. The Merengue proved it again Friday evening in Valencia. Trailing for a long time after Hugo Duro (27th) opened the score, Kylian Mbappé’s partners snatched victory thanks to Luka Modric (85th) and Jude Bellingham (90th + 5).

At the end of this match initially scheduled for November 2 but postponed after the deadly floods in the south-east of the country (231 deaths), Real is leading La Liga with 43 points, ahead of Atlético (41), who however, has one game less, and FC Barcelona (38). The Colchoneros will have the opportunity to regain control of the championship from January 12 when they host Osasuna (19th day).

Since their defeat in Bilbao (2-1) on December 4, in an advanced match of the 19th day, the Madrilenians remain undefeated for four matches in La Liga, a symbol of renewal after a laborious start to the season, like the adaptation difficult for French superstar Kylian Mbappé.
