0-2: Real Madrid clinch derby win
Goals from Møller and Esther secured the win away to Atlético.
Real Madrid emerged victorious from the derby at the Centro Deportivo Wanda. The Whites produced a fine performance in what was the re-scheduled game from matchday 16 of the Primera Iberdrola. Goals from Møller and Esther and a solid performance by Misa handed Toril’s side their seventh win on the bounce ahead of the second league Clásico on Sunday 12 pm CET.
Atlético had the game’s first chance when Shei’s shot missed the target in the 1st minute. However, the madridistas upped the pace and on the half-hour mark they opened the scoring. Athenea crossed from the left to Møller to head in and make it 0-1. The visitors carved out another chance when Athenea‘s curling effort was well saved by Gallardo. On the stroke of half-time, Ajibade almost grabbed the equaliser, but Misa came to her side’s rescue.
Esther scores and Misa saves penalty
It didn’t take Atlético long to create their first chance after the re-start, the hosts going close with a long-range strike. On 53’, Real Madrid doubled their lead. Lucía and Møller linked up brilliantly down the right, the latter made her way into the area before playing in Esther who made it 0-2. In the 63rd minute, the referee awarded a penalty to the hosts for a handball, but Misa pulled off an amazing save to deny Sampedro.
Atlético then applied the pressure but there seemed to be no way past the madridista goalkeeper, who first denied Santos and then Ajibabe’s header, just after hitting the post. The visitors tried to hit the hosts on the counterattack and almost got a third through Esther on 89’. The Whites clinched the derby victory away from home to record their seventh win on the bounce.
