Real Madrid keep LaLiga title bid alive with late Athletic Club win | OneFootball

Real Madrid kept their LaLiga title bid alive with a late 1-0 win over Athletic Club.

Scorers: Valverde 90+3'

A cagey encounter appeared to have finally been settled by Vinícius Júnior in the 80th minute when he cut inside and produced a rolled finish to beat Unai Simón.

But a VAR review chalked off the Brazilian's well-worked strike for offside, leaving the hosts facing potential fresh frustration after their Champions League exit.

However Fede Valverde salvaged the spoils for Carlo Ancelotti's side in the third minute of added time at the Santiago Bernabéu with a stunning long-range effort.

Los Blancos now sit just four points behind leaders Barcelona at the summit ahead of their meeting in the Copa del Rey final next weekend.
