The Merengues visited the Elche side as the current league leaders with 31 points, the same as their closest rival, FC Barcelona, who played on Saturday.
The Elche team took the lead in the 53rd minute thanks to an excellent team move that culminated in a goal by midfielder Aleix Febas past goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois.
Real Madrid manager Xabi Alonso changed his initial formation, bringing on midfielder Eduardo Camavinga and winger Vinicius Jr. in search of more attacking impetus.
The changes quickly paid off, and in the 78th minute of the second half, Dean Huijsen finished off a pass from Jude Bellingham to equalize for Real Madrid.
The home side responded in the 84th minute through Álvaro Rodríguez, a former Real Madrid player, who dribbled into the six-yard box and unleashed a powerful left-footed shot that caught the Belgian goalkeeper out of position.
As the match drew to a close, Jude Bellingham pounced on a rebound from Iñaki Peña, sending the ball into the back of the net at the Martínez Valero stadium to salvage a draw. This result leaves Real Madrid top of the table with 32 points, closely followed by Barcelona with 31 and Villarreal with 29.
