Real Madrid vs Celta Vigo Player Ratings: Ionit Radu 8.7/10 Rated as The Sky Blues Humiliated 9-Men Real Madrid In a 2-0 Win

Celta Vigo pulled off a stunning upset to defeat Real Madrid 0-2 at the Bernabéu in one of the most dramatic matches of the season. Despite dominating possession, Los Blancos were undone by poor finishing. Williot Swedberg proved the difference-maker, scoring twice, first with a cheeky flicked finish in the 53rd minute, then sealing the victory in the 90+3rd minute as Real Madrid's defense crumbled with reduced numbers. Things didn't go well for the host, as they lost their star defender Eder Militao due to injury in the 24th minute. However, the turning point came when Francisco Garcia received a second yellow card in the 64th minute for a foul on Swedberg, leaving Real Madrid with ten men for the remaining hour.

The chaos intensified in added time when left-back Álvaro Carreras was shown a straight red in the 90+2nd minute for dissent directed at the referee after being booked for his language. Both Rodrygo and Valverde also received yellow cards during this frenzied spell. With Madrid reduced to nine men, Celta's counter-attack proved unstoppable as Javi Rueda and Iago Aspas set up Swedberg's second goal.

This represents a historic failure for Real Madrid, who rarely lose at their fortress home ground. Despite creating numerous clear-cut opportunities throughout the match, Los Blancos couldn't find the breakthrough against Celta Vigo's resolute defense. Celta Vigo's resilience, particularly in the second half, earned them one of the season's greatest upset victories, while Real Madrid faces serious questions about finishing and discipline following this shocking Santiago Bernabéu defeat.
