Real Madrid’s La Liga title hopes were left hanging by a thread following a 1-1 draw against Girona at Estadio Santiago Bernabeu on Friday, 10 April 2026, a result that meant the Spanish champions would be nine points behind Barcelona with just seven games remaining if their Catalan rivals won their Saturday fixture. The disappointing outcome completed a miserable week for the Spanish giants, following a defeat at Mallorca and a 2-1 Champions League quarter-final first-leg loss at home to Bayern Munich earlier in the week.
The return of Jude Bellingham from injury had generated enormous excitement and expectation at the Bernabeu, with the England international making his first start since February after recovering from the physical problem that had kept him sidelined. Bellingham’s creativity and goal threat have been crucial to Real Madrid throughout the campaign, and his return was meant to provide the spark that could ignite a late-season title challenge. However, even his presence could not prevent another frustrating home afternoon for Carlo Ancelotti’s side.
Madrid took the lead in the 51st minute when Federico Valverde’s shot slipped through the hands of Girona goalkeeper Paulo Gazzaniga, giving the home side the advantage their possession deserved. However, Thomas Lemar, one of European football’s most technically gifted midfielders, struck a fine effort from outside the box in the 62nd minute to bring Girona level, and despite a late penalty appeal when Kylian Mbappe went down in the opposition box, Real could not find the winner. The three-game winless streak was Real Madrid’s second of the season and their first since November 2025. Watch highlights on AllSportsZone.
