Real Madrid defeated Athletic Club by a slim margin of 1-0 on Sunday night, preserving their prospects of winning La Liga.
In the 93rd minute of the match, Federico Valverde scored the game-winning goal to maintain Los Blancos ahead of Barcelona.
Carlo Ancelotti’s team is still four points behind Barcelona as a result of the outcome.
It appeared Madrid was headed for yet another poor outcome after they were eliminated from the Champions League by Arsenal in the middle of the week.
After defeating Rangers in the Europa League on Thursday, the champions struggled to score against Athletic, who had made a lot of rotations.
Additionally, Endrick was offside throughout the build-up, so when Vinicius Junior scored, the goal was disallowed.
After coming down lightly in the area, Bellingham made a penalty appeal and, in the closing moments, blasted over from close range.
However, Valverde had the last say, slamming a sliced, swerving effort into the top corner.
