WATCH: Julian Alvarez doubles up as Atletico Madrid make it 4-2 against Real Madrid

Real Madrid are on course for their first defeat of the 2025-26 season, as they are trailing 3-2 to Atletico Madrid in the Madrid derby at the RiyadhAir Metropolitano.

Atleti have threatened in the opening stages, and Alexander Sorloth wasted a big chance to score the opener as he waited too long to shot, which allowed Eder Militao to make a crucial last man challenge on the Norwegian striker. Despite this, Real Madrid saw their defence breached soon after as Robin Le Normand headed home from close range following a lovely cross from the right by Giuliano Simeone.

But unfortunately for Real Madrid, they could not hold the lead until half time. Koke Resurreccion delivered a cross into the box that was headed home by Sorloth, who made no mistake this time.

Minutes into the second period, Atleti have now taken the lead for the second time in the afternoon, and it has come from the penalty spot. Guler was adjudged to have fouled Nicolas Gonzalez with a huge boot, and that allowed Julian Alvarez to follow up his hat-trick in midweek with a goal from 12 yards.
