In a La Liga match, Real Madrid was defeated 0-2 by Celta on their home ground. The Madrid team dominated possession and actively attacked in the opponent's half throughout the game.
However, Celta's defense played reliably, nullifying the host team's offensive efforts. Midway through the second half, Real Madrid player Fran García, while attempting to stop an opponent's attack, received a second yellow card and was sent off.
Following this incident, Real Madrid lost their rhythm, leaving openings for their opponents. Celta capitalized on this and intensified their wing attacks.
The first goal came late in the game from a cross delivered into the penalty area. Celta player Svedberg directed the ball into the far corner, opening the score.
This goal forced the hosts to take risks. In the last minutes of the match, another Real Madrid player, Carreras, received a red card, reducing the team to nine players.
Celta then managed to score another goal on a counterattack. After a precise pass from Aspas, Svedberg avoided the offside trap, bypassed goalkeeper Courtois, and scored into an empty net.
This goal secured a comfortable victory for Celta. The match concluded with the following highlights:
- Despite dominating ball possession, Real Madrid struggled to create dangerous opportunities.
- Fran García's dismissal disrupted the team's structure.
- Carreras received a second red card near the end of the match.
- Svedberg scored two goals, decisively influencing the outcome of the game.
