After winning a Super Cup in Saudi Arabia, Real Madrid successfully returned to the local league on Saturday night, taking a tough 1: 2 over Sevilla in Santiago Bernabeu. Who actually signed the prestigious victory at the top.
Sevilla did conquer in the first half, after Luke De Jung was superbly netted into the net in the 30th minute, but the goal was disqualified after the VAR judges in a controversial decision claimed a foul on Maple Militeau. Who eventually managed to get on the board first was Real when in the 58th minute, Casmiro got a great delivery from Jovich and a great bounce over the goalkeeper, 0: 1 for the Whites.
In the 64th minute, the Andalusians returned to the game with justified equality. This time, De Jong stole the ball on the brink of extension, and with a left foot kicked a sharp, accurate ball to Courtois’s 1: 1. 21 minutes to Buzzer, Casmiro, the Brazilian completed a rare duo, this time after a good raise by Vasquez who found the hottest head in Bernabeu.
