As the championship defense continued to falter, Lariga’s championship defeated the home defeat.
Vinicius Junior missed the penalty and Real Madrid lost an injury goal in a 2-1 loss to Valencia as the defending champion stumbled in the Laliga Championship.
Hugo Duro stood out from the bench in Valencia and returned home to the winner, which silenced the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium in the depths of Saturday’s stop time.
Goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili saved Vinicius’ early penalty and a moment later Mouctar Diakhaby headed to the visitor in the 17th minute.
Vinicius equalized in close range at No. 50, but Mamardashvili and defense kept on until Duro hit and won Valencia’s first win of the season.
Barcelona led Madrid with three points and could take advantage of the stumbling blocks of its closest competitor when it hosted Real Betis late on Saturday.
Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti had to play third-string goalkeeper Fran Gonzalez, who made his debut for Madrid at the age of 19, after injuries to Thibaut Courtois and Andriy Lunin.
“We didn’t win games on the road, there was no better place than here,” said Valencia midfielder Javi Guerra. “For us, there are three crucial points, and in a stadium, few teams get good results.”
The victory has confirmed the team’s progress since Carlos Corberan replaced Ruben Baraja in December. It has risen from the downgrade zone to 15th and from the danger to 7 points.
Madrid fans heard some jokes when Vinicius missed the penalty kick obtained by Kylian Mbappe when his low and concentrated shots were rescued by Mamardashvili. The Brazilian striker also missed a penalty in his recent Champions League match against Atletico Madrid.
Two minutes later Diakhaby, who returned from a serious leg injury in January, crossed Antonio Rudiger and entered André Almeida’s corner kick.
Vinicius was unmarked in a distant post to stab him in the corner of Jude Bellingham. But Madrid urged the victory and ended up losing the game when it couldn’t defend Rafa Mir’s fast attack ending with a nervous cross, Duro defeated Gonzalez.
