Real Madrid has extended its top position in the Spanish Primera División for the time being. The Champions League winner won 3-0 (1-0) at FC Elche on Wednesday (October 19th, 2022).
Fede Valverde (11th minute), Karim Benzema (75th) and Marco Asensio (89th) scored the goals.
Coach Carlo Ancelotti’s team now leads the table with a six-point lead over FC Barcelona. The Catalans only play against FC Villarreal on Thursday.
VAR conceded three real goals
Real could have won even more, but the “Royal” were denied three goals by the video assistant. In the end, Benzema (6th/60th) and once ex-Munich David Alaba (27th) were not allowed to celebrate.
