"Real" Madrid team completed the year 2019 not on a very cheerful note. In the last match of the 18th round of the Spanish La Liga championship, the "Whites" at home failed to overcome the resistance of Bilbao Athletic. Both teams demonstrate some of the best defensive stats in the league. Failing to score, "Real" settled for a draw for the third time in a row. This allowed the Barcelona club to become the sole leader of the league - Catalans gained a two-point advantage over the Madrid team. "Real" could have "closed" the match in the first half, but even after breaking through the Basque defense, the goalkeeper was extending a helping hand. "Real" Madrid shook the opponents' goal structure three times during the 90 minutes. The Basques had several dangerous opportunities from counterattacks, but Thibaut Courtois reliably guarded the goal. Result: "Real Madrid" 0 - 0 "Athletic Bilbao";
