Villarreal earned a famous win over Real Madrid, who were left frustrated by two controversial penalty decisions going against them.
Real Madrid were left shell-shocked by a clever last-gasp Pablo Fornals goal as Villarreal earned a smash-and-grab 1-0 win at the Santiago Bernabeu.
Current La Liga's champions largely dominated proceedings on home soil, but Villarreal snatched all three points with three minutes left thanks to Fornals' exquisite chip.
This was Villareal’s first t league victory at Madrid in 18 attempts, says Goal.
It compounded a day of utter frustration for an out-of-form Madrid, who felt they twice should have had a penalty in the first half.
Villarreal defender Alvaro Gonzalez was lucky to not face punishment for handball from a Gareth Bale header, while Cristiano Ronaldo was adamant he was fouled by Mario Gaspar.
Referee Alberto Undiano Mallenco was unmoved on both occasions, while Madrid were further frustrated by a poor one-on-one miss by Ronaldo and some good work by Villarreal goalkeeper Sergio Asenjo.
Madrid have now won just once in five LaLiga matches and will be 19 points adrift of Barcelona if their Clasico rivals beat Real Sociedad on Sunday, while Villarreal are just one point adrift of Los Blancos in their bid to muscle in on the top four.
