Real Madrid has seen their unbeaten run cut short by Jorge Samapoli's Sevilla side after they lost 2-1 at the Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan on Sunday evening. Madrid took the early lead in the 67th minute through a Cristiano Ronaldo penalty after Sergio Rico brought down Dani Carvajal in the 18-yard box.
Nothing came off the game as both sides struggled to make something out of the tie before Ramos's own goal in the 85th minute from a cross into his own net brought Sevilla back into the game.
Sevilla added more pressure on Madrid and it was worth the stress as new signing Stevan Jovetic scuffled down a Vitolo pass off his shoulders before hitting the ball into the back of the net past the on-rushing Keylor Navas who was out of his goal line.
Jovetic's goal in the 92nd minute was enough to see Sevilla claim all 3 points to keep tab with Madrid for the title challenge in the league maintaining their 2nd spot and 1 point ahead of Barcelona who occupies the 3rd position.
