Real Madrid keeps winning in the First division and took full advantage of the slip of fellow townsman Atlético Madrid earlier on Saturday. The Royal has won in one week from competitor Sevilla, Athletic Bilbao and a second Basque club: also PSV-opponent Real society did not get a foothold against the list leader.
After fifteen minutes of play, it still seemed that Real Madrid was going to have a difficult evening in Estadio Anoeta: star player Karim Benzema had to stop the battle early injured. His replacement Luka Jovic was allowed to spend more than half an hour on the field for the first time this season, but immediately proved his worth: after just under an hour of play, he headed the 0-2 past goalkeeper Álex Remiro.

Shortly before, the Serb had already provided an assist to Vinícius Júnior: after a Brazilian-Serbian one-two, it was Vinícius who scored the opening goal. The 0-2 lead was never seriously endangered. Remiro even prevented a third goal just before time, but Real Madrid already had its sixth win in a row.
