Real Madrid missed a golden opportunity to heap pressure on LaLiga leaders Atlético Madrid as they drew 0-0 with Real Betis.
Scorers: N/A
Los Blancos had the chance to go joint-top with a win here but struggled to create any real opportunities in a disappointing first half.
Rodrygo Goes went closest in the opening 45 minutes but his long-range effort was saved with relative ease by the Betis goalkeeper.
Into the second half and once again it was Rodrygo who went closest to opening the scoring as his effort from the left-hand touchline rattled the crossbar.
That profligacy almost cost Madrid as the visitors went close through Borja, but Thibaut Courtois was at his sharpest to save well.
Zinedine Zidane was desperate now and brought on Eden Hazard with 10 minutes to go to try and find a late winner.
But they couldn’t, as they away side held out for a vital point in the title race.
