The Argentine archer Jeremiah Ledesma was the great figure in the game in which his team, the Cadiz, rescued a tie 0-0 on his visit to Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabéu stadium on date number 18 of the Spanish league. With several key interventions, the former Rosario Central allowed the team that is second to last in the standings to take an unexpected result against the leader of the contest.
Ledesma’s first great appearance came about 22 minutes into the first half, when he flew to his right to send a powerful Uruguayan shot to the corner. Federico Valverde. It was the highlight of an initial stage with few emotions, something that left both teams – although much more the local – in debt in the face of the complement.
But the Argentine goalkeeper was going to have a dreamed afternoon and I was going to put a bolt on his bow, something that he showed from the beginning of the second half. About 10 ′, Tony Kroos He sent the ball to the area and through the penalty spot appeared Eden Hazard to comb it. With a great reaction, Ledesma avoided what would have been the opening of the scoreboard of the Merengue.
On the closing of the game, those of Carlo Ancelotti They played closer and closer to the arch of the former Rosario Central. Cadiz defended dangerously close to their area and, with ten minutes remaining, a foul gave the locals the chance to have a risk-free kick. Karim Benzema He stood in front of the ball, aimed and fired, but ran into the albiceleste wall once more. Ledesma, 28, was impassable and with his interventions he allowed his team to take an invaluable point from his excursion to the Bernabéu.
This draw put a brake on the stupendous run of victories in the domestic tournament of Real Madrid, which he had taken all three points in his last seven consecutive appearances. The Merengue remains the leader of the competition with 43 points, followed by Sevilla, which has 37 and one game less.
Cadiz, meanwhile, remains the second to last in the league table. Those led by Alvaro they only add up 14 units and they hope that this good result achieved against the powerful team from the capital in the White House will allow them to achieve the clean and jerk to steer the course and ensure permanence in the highest category of Spanish football.
