MADRID: Real Madrid have moved up to the second spot in LaLiga following a controversial 3-1 win away to Eibar.
First half goals from Karim Benzema and Luka Modric after an excellent start from Zinedine Zidane’s side set them on their way to a fifth consecutive win on Sunday evening, but Kike Garcia’s magnificent strike brought Eibar back into the game, reports Xinhua news agency.
Eibar should have had a penalty eight minutes from time when the ball clearly struck Sergio Ramos’s elbow, which was away from his body, but neither the referee nor the VAR decreed a penalty and with Eibar chasing an equaliser, Lucas Vazquez added a third for Madrid on the counter-attack.
Atletico Madrid remains six points clear at the top of LaLiga with a 3-1 win at home to Elche on Saturday afternoon.
FC Barcelona disappointed again as they dropped two more points in a 2-2 draw at home to Valencia.
Dreadful defending allowed Mouctar Diakhaby to head Valencia in front in the 29th minute, before Leo Messi equalized in the fourth minute of injury time with a header after his penalty, for a foul by Jose Luis Gaya, had been saved.
