Real Madrid 2-2 Valencia: Los Blancos Held To Draw After Shoddy Finishing Display

Real Madrid were made to pay for their poor finishing as they were held to a 2-2 draw by Valencia on Sunday evening.

Los Blancos boss Zinedine Zidane again had Marco Asensio to thank for rescuing the point, with the youngster opening the scoring with a superb piece of individual play inside the opening 10 minutes, and rescuing his side a point inside the final 10 minutes with a similar showcase of talent.

However, the holding champions certainly were made to work for their share of the spoils, thanks to a superb team goal rounded off by Carlos Soler Barragan midway through the first half and then Geoffrey Kondogbia's well timed finish with just 15 minutes to go.
