Real Madrid’s struggles at Anfield spilled into their clash with Rayo Vallecano, which ended in a goalless draw at Vallecas on Sunday afternoon.
The Spanish giants were poor by their own lofty standards in their final La Liga clash ahead of the November international window. While Real Madrid never looked in danger of conceding, they never looked much of a threat to score.
After finding the back of the net in every game this season, Los Blancos have now been held scoreless in their last two matches. Xabi Alonso’s men lacked creativity and vision in the final third, resulting in their first draw in 2025–26.
Despite dropping points, Real Madrid still sit atop the La Liga standings, though they can see their gap to Barcelona dwindle to just three points should the Catalans secure a victory against Celta Vigo.
