Real Madrid produced a commanding 4-2 win over Sevilla at the Santiago Bernabéu, cutting Atlético Madrid’s lead at the top of LaLiga to just one point.
The victory not only solidifies Los Blancos’ home dominance, having only lost to Barcelona in the league since April 2023 but also underlines their determination to defend their title in a fiercely competitive race.
The reigning champions entered the match eager to bounce back from last weekend’s chaotic 3-3 draw with Rayo Vallecano, a result that felt like a missed opportunity after Atlético’s dramatic win over Barcelona.
With the inaugural FIFA Intercontinental Cup added to their trophy haul earlier in the week, Real Madrid’s confidence was evident, even as they contended with injuries and the absence of suspended star Vinícius Jr.
The star-studded lineup, however, rose to the occasion, combining skill, grit, and firepower to see off Sevilla, who proved a lively opponent but were ultimately outclassed.
The win sends a clear message to their rivals that Madrid are poised and ready to push their title defense to the wire as the season intensifies.
