Real Madrid continued its march towards the top of the Spanish Football League, achieving its eighth consecutive victory in various tournaments, after defeating its host Racing Santander by three clean goals, in the match that brought them together on Sunday in the eleventh round of the competition.
The royal team decided the match early during the first half of the match. French star Kylian Mbappe opened the scoring in the 11th minute from a penalty kick, before teammates Jude Bellingham and Yann Diomande added the second and third goals in the 22nd and 36th minutes, respectively.
With this victory, Real Madrid, led by coach Jose Mourinho, raised its score to 27 points, strengthening its positive record, especially after its recent victory in El Clásico over defending champion Barcelona by two goals to one, keeping the team in third place in the standings, one point behind Atletico Madrid, who is in second place with 28 points, and three points behind Barcelona, the leaders with 30 points, while Racing Santander’s score froze at 11 points in sixteenth place.
The Royal Club’s focus is temporarily shifting to the European Championships, as it prepares to face its host, AEK Athens, Greece, next Wednesday in the Champions League, before returning to the Spanish League to be a heavy guest on Valencia at the Mestalla Stadium next Saturday. In the same round, Santander seeks to correct its course when it plays an away match against its host Malaga on the same day.
