Real Madrid Suffer Shocking 2-0 Defeat to Celta Vigo

Posted on December 08, 2025

Real Madrid's struggles continued as they faced a surprising 2-0 defeat against Celta Vigo at the Santiago Bernabéu, with the match marred by two red cards for Los Blancos. Kylian Mbappé's side, who hoped to build on a recent victory, quickly found themselves in trouble.

Celta's Willot Swedberg was the standout performer, scoring both goals for the visitors. After an uneventful first half, Swedberg opened the scoring shortly after halftime with a deft flick, capitalizing on a defensive lapse. The situation worsened for Madrid when Fran Garcia received two yellow cards in quick succession, reducing the team to ten men.

As the match concluded, Alvaro Carreras was also sent off, leaving Madrid with just nine players on the pitch. Swedberg sealed the victory with a final goal in stoppage time, taking advantage of a defensive breakdown.

Despite dominating possession and creating multiple chances, Madrid's failure to convert opportunities left them frustrated, dropping them four points behind league leaders Barcelona. Meanwhile, Celta Vigo's victory pushed them into the top half of the table, providing a welcome boost to their campaign.
