Real Madrid failed to close the gap at the top of La Liga as the team was held to a 1-1 draw by Zaragoza at La Romareda.
On-loan Barcelona B player Rodri gave the home side the perfect start as los Merengues struggled to get a foothold in the game. Cristiano Ronaldo managed to net an equalizer before the break with his 28th league strike of the season but Madrid could not find another in a lackluster second.
