Madrid's profligacy punished as Espanyol grab win

LaLiga leaders Real Madrid were stunned at lowly Espanyol on Saturday after losing 1-0 thanks to a late Carlos Romero strike.

Vinicius Jr. appeared to have given Madrid the lead in the 21st minute after latching onto Kylian Mbappe's pass. However, the goal was disallowed after the France forward had been adjudged to have fouled Espanyol's Pol Lozano in the build-up.

The hosts kept Madrid at bay in the second half, with Lucas Vazquez, Rodrygo and Jude Bellingham all having efforts brilliantly saved by goalkeeper Joan Garcia. Romero netted the winner in the 85th minute after latching onto Omar El Hilali's pass.

The result means Madrid, on 49 points, are one point clear of Atletico Madrid, who beat Mallorca 2-0 earlier on Saturday. Espanyol moved up to 17th in the table with 23 points.
