Sweeping Real, easily “cleaned” Valladolid. The “queen” prevailed 6-0 and returned to winning ways after losing the derby against Barcelona. Ancelotti’s team remained at -12 from the top and the Catalans.
In the 22′ the “queen” opened the scoring, with Asensio carrying the ball for many meters, passing at the right moment for Rodrigo who executed Asenjo. Benzema then took action, making an amazing seven minutes. Vinicius crossed in the 29th minute, the opposing goalkeeper made a poor clearance and the Frenchman headed the ball into the net. Three minutes later Vinicius and Benzema teamed up again, this time outside the area, with 35-year-old driver to execute just outside the area with a full shot.
In the 36th Benzema -after Rodrigo’s cross- sealed the hat-trick with scissors, which was the third fastest (6 minutes and 30 seconds) in the history of Real. Rodrigo was not rewarded in the 66th minute for his fine display as he may have sent the ball into the net, but it was determined via VAR that he had been handballed earlier. However, he handed out another assist in the 73rd minute, with Asensio rounding up Asenjo to make it 5-0. Bathkethn made use of his assist in stoppage time Hazard and put the… icing on the cake.
