    Rayo Vallecano defeated Atlético Madrid in the small derby of the Spanish capital. The hosts were more effective and defended well. Atlético was not creative enough and lacked the will to come back most of the time. For Atlético it was already their 5th (!) consecutive away game without a win and their advantage towards Real Madrid is now only four points.
     
    Game over.
     
    90+4
    Goal for Atlético!

    After a corner from the right side Arda Turan's shot was stopped from a short distance by Rubén but the rebound came to Falcao who scored from two metres into the wide open net. Still the goal came far too late with only two seconds left of the additional time.
     
    90+3
    The home fans are already celebrating.
     
    90+2
    Not much happening anymore. Rayo defend with all 11 players.
     
    90
    Four minutes are added to the game.
     
    89
    Solo run by Oliver Torres. His shot from the 18-yard box was too slow though.
     
    88
    Trashorras (Rayo) gets a yellow card for a foul in the midfield.
     
    87
    Gálvez has a leg injury after a hard crash at the Rayo area.
     
    85
    Rayo with their last change. Adrián is in for Chori Domínguez.
     
    83
    Arda Turan with the big opportunity. From the 18-yard box his shot went past the far post just a few inches wide.
     
    81
    Altético youngster Oliver Torres gets a few minutes for Koke.
     
    81
    Paco Jémez, the Rayo head coach, is sent off by the referee for a discussion about a foul seconds before... quite harsh...
     
    79
    Filipe Luis with a run through the Rayo area, leaves two players behind himself but opponent number three clears at cost of a corner.
     
    78
    Arda Turan with several passing options but he wanted to force his way through two defenders all alone - way too selfish.
     
    77
    It doesn't really look like Atlético could have a comeback in this game. The guests barely make it through the Rayo defense.
     
    76
    Rayo with a fast free kick but then Piti lost the ball - goal kick.
     
    74
    Also the scorer of the 2-0, Leo Baptistao, leaves the pitch. In for him is Andrija Delibasic.
     
    73
    Cata Díaz (Atlético) gets a yellow card for a hard foul against Leo Baptistao.
