Antoine Griezmann's late goal gave Atletico Madrid a 1-1 draw at Real Madrid on Saturday, tightening the title race in the Spanish league.
Griezmann used his left foot to drive home a perfectly placed throughball by substitute Angel Correa to equalize at the Santiago Bernabeu in the 85th minute.
Pepe put Real ahead in the 52nd, when he shook off his marker and headed Toni Kroos' free kick just inside the far upright.
But Real failed to press for another goal and Griezmann capitalized on its complacency.
The stalemate in the Spanish capital derby left leader Real three points ahead of Barcelona, which visited Malaga later Saturday. Real also has a game in hand.
Atletico, which added the draw to wins at Real in the last three league campaigns, stayed in third place, 10 points behind Real.
Real was on the brink of taking a major step toward its first league title in five years.
That was until Correa, who had gone on in the 61st for Saul Niguez, saw the sliver of space between Nacho Fernando and Dani Carvajal. Niguez slid the ball forward between the pair of Real defenders, and Griezmann did the rest, slotting his shot past Keylor Navas for his third goal against Real in Atletico's red-and-white.
Coutinho, Firmino inspire reds
STOKE: Roberto Firmino and Philippe Coutinho came off the bench to inspire liverpool to a 2-1 comeback victory over Stoke in the English Premier league on Saturday.
With liverpool trailing to a Jonathan Walters header at halftime, the Brazilian duo emerged from the reserves to score within two minutes of each other.
The match-winning pair was rested by manager Juergen Klopp as his side contested its third Premier league game in six days, but another 45 minutes on the sideline proved to be enough before the pair were sent on to secure a victory that strengthened liverpool's Champions league qualification hopes.
Man City record 3-1 win
MANCHESTER: Manchester City got its Champions league qualification hopes back on track by beating English Premier league struggler Hull 3-1 on Saturday.
A stunning team move finished by Sergio Aguero and a Fabian Delph strike ensured City ended a run of four EPl games without a win after an Ahmed Elmohamady own goal gave it the lead.
Having been effectively eliminated from the title race by its defeat to leader Chelsea on Wednesday, City's focus is on securing qualification for Europe's top competition next season.
