Real Madrid manager Jose Mourinho has claimed that his side should have had two penalties during Sunday's 1-1 draw with Malaga at the Santiago Bernabeu.

Karim Benzeman had given the hosts a first-half lead before Santi Cazorla's free kick in injury time brought an end to Madrid's 11-game winning streak.

"I won't criticise the referee, but he should have given us two enormous penalties. It's all part of the Liga though," Mourinho told reporters.

"I have no reason to be critical. It is normal to draw or lose every now and then. I'd have had reasons to be critical if it was the result of a poor attitude, but that's not the case. We got plenty of chances to score.

"I always take into account that we can win, draw or lose. We always do our utmost to win, but we had to settle for a draw. That's La Liga."

Los Blancos are now eight points ahead of rivals Barcelona in the race for the title.
