With a goal in full stoppage time, Real Madrid took three points away at Alaves, in a match of the 18th matchday, and moved to the top of the Spanish league table. With ten men from the 9th minute of the second half due to the expulsion of their captain, Nacho Fernandez, Ancelotti’s team won in the 92nd minute with a header from Lucas Vazquez following a corner kicked by Toni Kroos. Real ends the year in the lead, equal on points (45) but with a better goal difference with the surprising Girona, held 1-1 by Betis Sevilla. Barcelona, who beat Almeria 3-2 yesterday, are third with seven points behind.
