Poor fortune for Castilla
Shortly after the start of the second half, Cañizares prevented a goal for Los Rojiblancos when he made a great intervention in a one-on-one against El Jebari.

The pace increased and Atlético B troubled the Madrid goal with a deflected header from Ndiaye (64'). Madrid stepped up their performances and Víctor Muñoz, who had only just come on, made it 2-1 when he beat the keeper one-on-one after a great through ball from Manuel Ángel (77'). However, Atlético equalised with two minutes to go in a fortunate move that was converted by Mestanza. Raúl's men went on the attack in stoppage time, but the 2-2 scoreline held until the end.
