Real Madrid Women's Team Defeats Rayo Vallecano in Madrid Derby

The 21-year-old forward from Itauguá scored her first official goal with the Real Madrid shirt. Real Madrid took over Tacón's spot in 2018 when she joined from the Brazilian club Santos.

Martínez displayed tireless effort at Valdebebas Sports City, as usual, and was rewarded with a header from Sofia Jakobsson's precise cross from the left.

This goal sealed the victory for the Madrid team, dressed in pink for World Breast Cancer Day, which will be celebrated on Monday. They proved to be far superior to Rayo Vallecano, who played their first match after the postponement of their first two games.

After starting their journey with a clear defeat against defending champions Barcelona, Real Madrid managed to secure a draw at Valencia's stadium. This victory gives them a new boost.

Despite their dominance, it took them nearly the entire first half to find the back of the net. Their persistence paid off with Maite Oroz scoring an incredible shot from inside the box, which hit the crossbar and went in.

Swedish player Kosovare Asllani, who missed several opportunities in the first half, extended the lead for the Madrid team. Although Sladjana Bulatovic quickly narrowed the deficit, David Aznar's team's superiority was evident with Jessica Martínez's goal.
