Real Madrid Overcomes Valencia in Dramatic Comeback to Top La Liga

Down to 10 men after Vinícius Júnior's red card, Real Madrid secured a 2-1 victory with late goals from Luka Modric and Jude Bellingham.

Jude Bellingham redeemed a missed penalty by scoring a stoppage-time winner, securing Real Madrid's place at the top of La Liga with 43 points.
Luka Modric equalized in the 85th minute after coming on as a substitute, following a first-half lead by Valencia's Hugo Duro.
Vinícius Júnior was sent off in the 79th minute for shoving Valencia goalkeeper Stole Dimitrievski, a decision Real Madrid plans to appeal.
The match, postponed from October due to devastating floods in Valencia, saw Madrid capitalize on a defensive error for the decisive goal.
Valencia, now four points from safety in 19th place, have not won in La Liga since November despite appointing a new coach during the winter break.
