Madrid penalty drama, draw keeps LaLiga title race tight

MADRID -- Real Madrid's 1-1 draw with Atletico Madrid in Saturday's derby means there's no change at the top of the table, with just one point still separating the two teams. Julián Álvarez's first-half penalty had Atletico hoping they might secure their first win at the Santiago Bernabéu since 2016, but Kylian Mbappé's equalizer early in the second half meant the visitors had to settle for a point.

Real had the better of the second half as both goalkeepers, Thibaut Courtois and Jan Oblak, making important late saves.
