Los Blancos manager Carlo Ancelotti made two changes from the win over Sevilla last week, as Antonio Rudiger and Eduardo Camavinga replaced Eder Militao and Aurélien Tchouameni.
Rodrygo went even closer ten minutes later with a first-time strike that rattled against the upright, just moments after Valery Fernandez sent a header wide of the goal at the other end. Girona were the first to make a change in the second half, as Rodrigo Riquelme came on for Yan Couto on 58 minutes while Ancelotti responded by throwing on Marco Asesnio for Camavinga three minutes later.
However, Girona were awarded a penalty with 11 minutes left to play after a handball from Asensio in the box, which allowed Cristhian Stuani to level matters from the spot.
