Vallecano was not highly rated in the match that took place in the early morning of November 6. However, the team from the suburbs of Madrid played a tight defense and made Real Madrid deadlocked in attack.
According to statistics in the first half, Real Madrid launched 12 shots towards Vallecano's goal. In the whole match, Real Madrid had 22 shots towards Vallecano's goal.
However, Real Madrid lacked precision in their finishing. Bellingham, Joselu, Vinicius were all unlucky and they could not even put the ball past goalkeeper Dimitrievski.
