Alvaro Rodriguez saves the Meringues

They can thank him.

While Atlético Madrid - reduced to ten - led the score after a headed goal, on an indirect free kick, from José Giménez, the very young Alvaro Rodriguez (18) equalized in the last minutes of additional time .

His header, from a corner on the left side struck by Luka Modric, left no chance for Jan Oblak (85th).

The Uruguayan trained at the White House should remember this first professional goal during the Madrid derby.

The abnegation of the Colchoneros

In numerical inferiority shortly after the hour mark following the exclusion of Angel Correa for an elbow on Antonio Rüdiger, Atlético Madrid did not abdicate and continued to believe in their chances.

And he was right since José Giménez opened the scoring with a header, on an indirect free kick shot by Antoine Griezmann, in the last quarter of an hour of play (78th).

A self-sacrifice which allowed them to snatch a good point outside in the race for the title.

Angel Correa, missed entry

Left on the bench at the start of the game, Angel Correa came into play at the break in place of young Pablo Barrios.

The Argentinian was on a mission to bring more danger offensively.

Shortly after the hour mark, he showed up...but in the worst possible way.

In the fight with Antonio Rüdiger, the striker was the author of a slight nudge.

Clever, the German took the opportunity to exaggerate and collapse.

The referee of the meeting did not hesitate and released the red card (64th).
