MADRID: Two late penalties from Racing Santander's Ezequiel Garay, the winner coming just seconds before the end of regulation time, handed nine-man Real Madrid a demoralizing 2-1 defeat on Saturday.
It was a bad night for Real in every respect.
Not only did Real's eight game unbeaten streak come to an end, the 29-time Spanish champions squandered the chance to overtake league leaders and bitter rivals Barcelona and go top of La Liga for the first time in 18 months.
