In a Real Madrid of circumstances, with only ten players available from the first templatehe met an unexpected protagonist, the canterano Jacobo Ramón, who in the 95 minute knocked down the resistance of Mallorca (2-1), staged in his goalkeeper Leo Román, who signed 13 stops to keep his own to his own until the last moment.
In the 11th minute, Mallorca got ahead thanks to a goal by Martin Valjent. One of the three centrals with which he left in his eleven Jagoba Arrasate. He threw a wall with Mateu Morey and entered the area, where the ball came after touching in a Ceballos that went to the ground and saw how Asencio, without trusting the shot of his rival, did not meet him.
Real Madrid had more than enough occasions to go ahead to the break, but he met a goalkeeper who showed off in a great stage. After signing 13 stops against FC BarcelonaLeo Román made 13 this Wednesday at Santiago Bernabéu.
Five of them in the first half. He won Endrick in a hand in hand in the 3rdto Bellingham in 18 and in the shots from outside the Modric area in 37, Mbappé in 41 and Fede Valverde in 43. A wall that cost him to overcome.
Of course, the top scorer of Real Madrid this season, Kylian Mbappé, was in charge of putting the draw in the 68th minute in an individual play. He did it after minutes after the break of the white team living in rival field, but without changing the rhythm.
The goal of the tie made Real Madrid react and returned the siege on the goal of a Leo Román who continued with his particular exhibition. And in a play in which he risked at a low exit, in the 86th minute, it was Valjent who took the Mbappé shot before entering the goal. A goal for the central and a save of goal value.

Jesús Vallejo, in his second game of the season, combed the ball and the canterano Jacobo Ramón threw himself with faith to overcome Leo Román’s departure.
With Mallorca, caressing a key point in its fight to enter European competition and FC Barcelona about to tie the league title without playing, Jacobo appeared to give Real Madrid an agonizing victory that delays the Aloirón de los Barca, with a match on Thursday at the House of Espanyol in which they depend on themselves to certify the title.
