The Santiago Bernabéu witnessed one of its most chaotic finales in recent memory, as Real Madrid — reduced to nine men after two dramatic red cards — collapsed in stoppage time, conceding a humiliating second goal to Celta Vigo that sent thousands of home supporters streaming toward the exits.
With the clock ticking into the 93rd minute, Real Madrid were desperately chasing an equaliser, the crowd roaring for a miracle despite the 1–0 deficit. But instead of a heroic comeback, what followed stunned the football world and silenced the stadium.
Celta Vigo’s Feliot produced a moment of pure audacity, scoring a breathtaking heel-flick goal earlier in the match that had already shocked the home crowd. Yet his second act was even more outrageous — and far more painful for Madrid fans.
In stoppage time, Feliot broke through the Madrid back line and faced Thibaut Courtois one-on-one, and what he did next felt like an insult carved into Real Madrid’s pride. With ice-cold composure, he dribbled past Courtois, slowed down as if posing for a photo, and rolled the ball toward the empty net.
He almost stopped the ball on the line — a clear taunt — before calmly pushing it over, turning the Bernabéu’s anxious tension into furious silence. Some Madrid supporters couldn’t bear to watch the replay and headed straight for the exits.
The stadium atmosphere flipped instantly, from desperate hope to disbelief, as Celta players wheeled away celebrating a goal that will be replayed for years. Even Real Madrid manager Xabi Alonso stood frozen, while Kylian Mbappé’s live on-air reaction captured the world’s attention, his jaw dropping at the humiliation unfolding on the pitch.
Celta Vigo sealed a historic 2–0 win, and the images of Feliot’s dribble, Courtois beaten on the ground, and the stunned Bernabéu crowd will define this match far more than the red cards or the missed chances.
