Mallorca football video – Real Madrid: Benzema double, incomplete joy (Round 28 La Liga)

(Football video, Mallorca – Real Madrid, round 28 of La Liga) Benzema continued to shine to help Real Madrid get closer to the La Liga title this season.

Real Madrid entered the match in a high mood after coming upstream to beat PSG in Champions League round of 16 in the middle of last week. Right in the 6th minute, Vinicius dribbled into the penalty area before pulling back for Mendy to go up and narrowly deviate from the post.

Benzema shines with a brace and an assist

Just five minutes later, Mallorca had a sly reply. Olivan crosses the ball like it’s in the box of Real Madrid but unfortunately, Muriqi cushioned the ball to go out. The next few minutes saw the players of both teams enter the ball more aggressively than necessary, resulting in 3 yellow cards being drawn by the referee.

By minute 35, Real Madrid even had to rely on the vertical post to avoid a goal. And that was also the most remarkable situation in the first half.

After the break, Real Madrid still did not have many changes in play but once again they were helped from the opponent’s individual mistake. In the 55th minute, Baba lost the ball right in front of the penalty area, opening the opportunity for “White Vulture” and Benzema to pass the ball to Vinicius to easily open the score.

In the 77th minute, Real Madrid had a good chance to double the lead after Vinicius was fouled in the penalty area. And on the 11m mark, Benzema successfully completed the penalty. Only 5 minutes later, the French striker shot high to complete his own double.

However, Benzema’s joy was not complete when he was injured and had to leave the field in the 86th minute. Running out of substitutions, Real Madrid had to play with 10 men on the field in the short remaining minutes. However, the students of coach Carlo Ancelotti still kept a clean sheet.

Winning 3-0, Real Madrid took another step to the La Liga title when they were 10 points behind the team chasing Sevilla.
