Samuel Chukwueze upstaged Vin├нcius J├║nior by scoring twice in an outstanding performance by the Villarreal forward to lead its 3-2 comeback win at Real Madrid in the Spanish league.
The Nigeria international canceled out a sixth-minute own goal by teammate Paul Torres when he juked past Nacho Fern├бndez to score his first goal in the 39th minute.
Vin├нcius put Madrid back in front shortly after halftime after he eluded a pack of defenders, but Chukwueze made a pass that led to Jos├й Morales’ equalizer in the 70th. He then struck the 80th-minute winner from long range to stun the Santiago Bernabeu.
Madrid’s first home loss in the domestic league comes four days before it hosts Chelsea in the Champions League quarterfinals.
Barcelona can move 15 points clear of second-placed Madrid if it beats Girona on Monday.
