| Ronaldo v Messi |
Lionel Messi put his side into the lead from the spot following Raul Albiol’s reckless challenge on David Villa, which earned the defender a red card.
Madrid were awarded a penalty of their own in the 82nd minute when Marcelo was fouled by Dani Alves, allowing Cristiano Ronaldo to score his first goal against Barcelona in seven matches.
With a draw both teams collecting just one point. Barcelona remained at the top of the standings with 86 points, followed by Real Madrid in the runner-up position with 78 points. With only five games remaining, the possibility of Barca retain La Liga title is quite large.
Lineups:
Real Madrid: Casillas Carvalho, Albiol, Marcelo, Ramos, Pepe, Khedira, Xabi (Adebayor 66 '), Ronaldo, Di Maria (Arbeloa 67'), Benzema (Oezil 57 ').
Barcelona: Valdes, Pique, Puyol (Keita 58 '), Adriano, Alves, Busquets, Iniesta, Xavi, Villa, Messi, Pedro (Afellay 67').(via sepakbola)
