Madrid already felt humiliated having to play on the Monday in a Champions League week but their humiliation was furthered when they went behind.
Silva gave the home side, who are still in the hunt for a European place, the lead but Los Blancos hit back after the break.
In-form Karim Benzema got the goal to earn a point but the draw leaves Madrid 13 points back from Barcelona and four off Atletico Madrid.
