Castilla draws at Alfredo Di Stéfano

Real Madrid Castilla drew at the Alfredo Di Stéfano. Our reserve team was unable to secure all three points against Zamora after conceding two goals in the final minutes of the match. The madridistas took the lead with a penalty goal by Palacios in the first half and another by Alexis Ciria in the second period. However, Zamora managed to equalize the match with goals in the 83rd and 89th minutes.

Castilla tried first through Palacios who, after a good combination with Alexis Ciria, cut past the opposing defender and struck a left-footed shot that went just wide of the post (11’). Eight minutes later, the visitors responded with a low shot from Miki Codina in a one-on-one against Mestre, which our goalkeeper saved in two attempts. After the first half-hour of play, Yáñez received a ball in the area and, while trying to dribble past the Zamora striker, was brought down. Palacios converted the penalty to make it 1-0 on the scoreboard (35’).

The second
In the second half, the madridistas were once again the first to try. Yáñez tested his luck with a shot from the edge of the box that Fermín managed to stop (49’). Four minutes later, Alexis Ciria did not miss. Fortea sent a great cross into the box, and the midfielder connected with a superb header to extend the team's lead.

Despite the madridistas' dominance, Zamora narrowed the gap with a goal by Miki Codina (83’). Six minutes later, Mario García scored the final 2-2 equalizer. Our reserve team, which had to play the last few minutes with ten players due to Cestero's second yellow card in stoppage time, ended up earning one point at the Di Stéfano.
