After 13 matches, Barcelona are top on 34 points to Real Madrid’s 32. Santiago Comesana put the home side ahead to raucous scenes after just five minutes before two goals in the space of four minutes turned the match Madrid’s way. First Luca Modric levelled from the penalty spot in the 37th minute before Eder Militao fired Carlo Ancelotti’s previously unbeaten side into the lead. It was not to last, however, as Rayo were level at the break with Alvaro Garcia getting the better of a goalmouth scramble and snapping a shot through a sea of legs.
