Soccer-Primera Liga reports

OSASUNA 0 RECREATIVO HUELVA 1

REAL MALLORCA 1 REAL MADRID 1

The league leaders were up against it in Mallorca until Dutch winger Arjen Robben's low cross was pushed into the path of compatriot Wesley Sneijder who scored just before the break.

Their hold on the game was broken when defender Sergio Ramos was dismissed for a second booking in the 65th minute and soon after former Real youth team player Borja Valero curled in a spectacular equaliser.

Real were hanging on at the end as Mallorca striker Daniel Guiza hit the bar with the goal gaping.
