Tiktukno: Summary of the day in sports, 29.12 (Sport1)
The Spanish league where the World Cup is overdue and the 18th round continues today (Friday) with the meeting between Shawn Weissman's Valladolid and Real Madrid.
Sevilla and Celta Vigo drew 1:1 in a heated bottom battle.
Valladolid - Real Madrid 0:0 (1st half)
The champion of Europe and Spain went into the break from second place in the table after a 1:2 victory over Cadiz, precisely in a bad period for the Spanish luxury club.
With a long list of injuries that clouded the period before the World Cup, Carlo Ancelotti was given a full and fit squad for the visit to Sean Weissman and his team.
The Israeli striker who scored in the 1:5 victory over Arenas in the King's Cup remained on the bench, while on the other hand, Karim Benzema returned to Ancelotti's 11 and will try to prove that his retirement from the French national team is just a small teacher on the way to another season full of goals for the striker and Ballon d'Or winner.
Also Dani Carvajal and Marco Asensio in the 11, while Luka Modric waits on the bench, similar to Rodrigo.
Will try to get back to the top.

Salta Vigo - Sevilla 1:1
The stressed Sevilla came to this game with three suspended players, and two Argentinian world champions missing but with Marcos Aconia who did start in the lineup.
Sevilla's weak defense was breached in the 33rd minute when Iago Espas' deep ball reached Gabriel Viega who from close range bounced over Yassin Bono and put the hosts up 0:1.
But the Andalusians improved a lot in the first half and Kika Salas equalized (54) with a close shot.
And of course Sevilla cannot finish a game with 11 players and in the 84th minute Jose Angel Corona was sent off for a late foul on Espas and a second yellow.
Sevilla remain below the red line despite this point, Salta are only a point away from it.
Save Sevilla from losing.
