Real Madrid vs Rayo Vallecano

Rayo Vallecano became the first side to beat Real Madrid in La Liga this season, a result which leaves Barcelona top of the table.

44' GOAL - RAYO VALLECANO - WHAT A GOAL! Isi Palazon was top of the pile tonight but in truth, the player of the match could have went to any number of players in a Rayo shirt, that's how well they played. This has been the first defeat for Los Blancos in the competition this season. From the first whistle their intentions were clear, they were not going to sit back and let Madrid dominate proceedings, but instead they chose to take the initiative, getting in Madrid's face and denying them any time on the ball. On 66 minutes, Oscar Trejo had the chance to put his side back in the lead from the spot following a Carvajal handball, but his effort was saved by Courtois. Andoni Iraola's side came out all guns blazing in the first half as they looked to press Real Madrid high up the pitch.
