Real Madrid suffered its fifth defeat in the Spanish League this season, in its match, which it lost to its host Real Mallorca, 2-1, on Saturday, in the thirtieth round of the competition.
With this result, Real Madrid’s balance froze at 69 points, occupying second place, four points behind leaders Barcelona, which was preparing to face Atletico Madrid, who was in third place at the top of the round.
This defeat caused increased fears within Real Madrid’s ranks ahead of the anticipated confrontation against Bayern Munich on Tuesday, in the first leg of the quarter-finals of the Champions League.
On the other hand, Mallorca raised its score to 31 points to occupy seventeenth place, only two points away from the relegation places, as part of its quest to remain in the top flight.
Manu Morlanes scored Mallorca’s first goal in the 42nd minute, before Eder Militao was able to score the equalizer for Real Madrid in the 88th minute.
However, Vedat Muriqi snatched the victory for the hosts by scoring a late goal in the first minute of stoppage time, scoring his eighteenth goal this season, and thus continuing his pursuit of “Kylian Mbappe” in the scorers’ list.
