The Blue and Whites are hoping for their first League win at the Madrid ground. There are three positive precedents in which MCF secured three draws. They are:
2015/16 season (0-0)
LaLiga matchday 6. It was a very serious match for Javi Gracia’s team, who knew how to endure the Whites’ attempts, particularly in the final stretch of play, when Málaga were a man down following the expulsion of Amrabat in minute 77. Kameni put on a standout performance with several impressive saves.
2011/12 season (1-1)
LaLiga matchday 28. Pellegrini’s Málaga claimed a valuable point against Mourinho’s Madrid, who took the lead in 35’ of the first half thanks to Benzema. Just before the final whistle, in minute 92, a beautiful free kick from Santi Cazorla slipped into the back of Casillas’ goal, remaining forever in the memory of Malagusimo.
2001/02 season (1-1)
LaLiga matchday 2. A golden point earned at the beginning of the season, during the golden age of Joaquín Peiró’s team. Roberto Carlos put Vicente del Bosque’s side ahead in 14’, and it was a former Madrid player, Fernando Sanz, who equalised following a corner, to achieve the first positive result at this ground for MCF.
