Valencia stun Real Madrid with injury time winner


An injury time winner by Hugo Duro helped Valencia to stun Real Madrid as the hosts lost ground in the La Liga title race.
With the clock showing 95 minutes, Rafa Mir put in a sublime cross which Hugo Duro headed home from close range.
Mouctar Diakhaby had opened the scoring for Valencia when he rose highest to head home Andre Almeida’s cross.
It was a blow for Madrid who had passed up a big chance minutes earlier when Vinicius Jr’s penalty was easily saved by goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili after Cesar Tarrega was judged to have fouled Kylian Mbappe in the box.
Shortly after the break, Vinicius atoned for his penalty miss, sending an effort high into the roof of the net to equalise.
Mbappe stabbed an effort just wide but was unable to find the target in a frustrating afternoon for the French striker and his side.
Madrid have missed five penalties this season in all competitions (11 scored from 16), their highest tally of failures in a single campaign since at least 2013-14.
For Valencia, it is a mammoth win and the first time they have achieved victory at the Bernabeu since 2008.
