Las Palmas vs Real Madrid match review:

In a thrilling La Liga match played at the Estadio de Gran Canaria, Real Madrid claimed a 2-1 victory over a determined Las Palmas. With the score 0-0 at half-time, the match was an evenly contested affair, but Real Madrid's resilience and determination eventually took over. The match started fiercely, with both teams showing their attacking intentions from the first minute. However, in the 5th minute Real Madrid received a yellow card for playing with Rodrigo's hand. The young Brazilian was cautioned for a late challenge, setting the tone for a physical encounter. The first half was a tense contest, with both teams creating chances but failing to convert them into goals. Las Palmas defended resolutely, disrupting Real Madrid's attacks. Despite their best efforts, neither team managed to break the deadlock and the score remained 0-0 at half-time. The second half started with Las Palmas taking the initiative. In the 53rd minute, Javier Munoz stunned Real Madrid with an apt shot, making the score 1-0. The crowd in the stadium erupted in joy as Munoz celebrated his goal, and it looked like Las Palmas were about to pull off the upset. However, Real Madrid were quick to react to falling behind. Moments after conceding the goal, Las Palmas player C. Rodriguez received a yellow card in the 55th minute for a careless challenge. Taking advantage of the resulting free kick, Real Madrid made a double substitution, replacing D. Ceballos and B. Diaz for F. Valverde and Joselu respectively.

These substitutions brought fresh energy to Real Madrid's game, and in the 65th minute Vinicius Júnior equalised. This goal breathed new life into the game, and both teams started to look for the winning goal in the final minutes. Las Palmas tried to regain the lead by making a couple of substitutions in the 69th minute. Marvin and A. Moleiro were replaced by H. Herzog and E. Loyodis. However, these changes did not bring the desired result, as Real Madrid continued to press. In the 78th minute, Las Palmas made two more substitutions, bringing on S. Ramirez and Munir El Haddadi in an attempt to regain control of the situation. But it was Real Madrid who struck the decisive blow in the 84th minute. A. Tchouameni, who had only recently arrived on the pitch, scored a sensational goal, giving his team a decisive lead. As the match entered its final stages, both teams made new substitutions to bring the game to a close. Las Palmas replaced Javier Munoz with S. Cabu in the 89th minute, while Real Madrid replaced Vinicius Júnior with F. Mendy in the same minute. The final minutes of the match were not without drama as both teams received yellow cards late on. In the 90th minute, Las Palmas' M. Perrone, F. Mendy and A. Chuameni received warnings from the referee, reflecting the intensity of the contest. Although Las Palmas fought valiantly until the final whistle, Real Madrid stood firm and won a difficult 2-1 victory. As a result, Real Madrid extended their winning streak in La Liga, showing their determination to compete for the title this season. On the other hand, Las Palmas can be proud of their performance despite failing to get a positive result against one of Spain's top clubs.
