#4 Levante came hard at Real Madrid after the break
Toni Kroos, Casemiro and James Rodriguez had the game under control in the first half as they were creating ample of chances, were press resistant, and were getting out of tight spaces with ease. But Paco Lopez' men came hard at Zidane's side in the second half.
The visitors found space behind Carvajal to find their opener which was slotted in by Real Madrid loanee Borja Mayoral in the 49th minute. Madrid found it hard to push the Granotas behind as they kept coming at them. With Casemiro coming off for Eden Hazard, the Los Blancos lost some balance as Levante eased their way in the midfield.
Lopez' men were rewarded with their second of the game as Carvajal was unable to deal with a cross from a set-piece which was headed in by Gonzalo Melero. Real's defence is still in shambles as they could have easily given a 3 goal lead away if not for Thibaut Courtois' fantastic 91st minute save to deny the visitors. The game went down to the wire and the Belgian stood tall in the dying minutes to clinch all 3 points for his side.
