Villarreal hand Real Madrid its second La Liga loss of the season

Real Madrid suffered their second defeat of the season in La Liga this afternoon after a 2-1 scoreline against the Yellow Submarines. Madrid lost their first game to Rayo Vallecano this season in a five-goal thriller match.

The result which favors Barcelona means the Catalan giant will go 3 points clear of Madrid should they pick a minimum of a point tomorrow at Atlético Madrid.

Pino and Gerrard Moreno’s spot kick were enough to seal all three points for the Yellow Submarines. Karim Benzema’s one goal was not enough to salvage a point for Los Blancos. Madrid dropped to second place with 38 points, while the three points pushed Villareal to the 5th spot.
