Lopetegui puts on brave face after another Real mess against Alaves

VITORIA, Spain - Julen Lopetegui said it is too early to be questioning his future despite Real Madrid stumbling to a shocking 1-0 defeat by Alaves on Saturday to make it four straight games without a victory.

It's four games without a goal, too, for the European champion - its longest scoring drought since 1985.

Manu Garcia headed home in the 95th minute to send the home crowd at Mendizorrotza Stadium into wild celebration. The victory marked the first time Alaves has beaten Madrid here since 1931.
