A 0-0 draw suits neither side and was nothing to celebrate but at least it was not cruel, as some Atlético fans feel their history against Real has been. It leaves both teams from the capital ten points behind Barcelona and showcased the reasons why that is the case. Toni Kroos had the first and best, playing a one-two with Ronaldo and shooting wide from seven yards. There was little clarity, little imagination, little pace to the play, and not much sign of a striker – either to take chances or make them. Real knew a draw was worthless and took a step forward; nerves gripped in this new arena.
