Karim Benzema shined again, scoring in second-half stoppage time on Sunday, with Real Madrid winning 3-2 at Sevilla and approaching the Spanish league title for the second time in three seasons. Four minutes apart in the first half, Real Madrid conceded two goals, but came back from the end of the half to reverse the situation and take a 15-point lead with six league rounds remaining.
"Everyone is waiting for Real Madrid to lose, but Real Madrid will not lose," Real Madrid boss Ancelotti said. "Madrid have character and character, it's a well-deserved victory. The league is not over yet, there are still a few games left, but today was a big push for us. ”
Madrid's closest challenger is Barcelona, which has two games, including Monday against relegation-threatened Cadiz. Third-placed Sevilla could have won at the Juan Stadium to close the gap with Real Madrid to nine points, but this season's 15-game unbeaten run at home came to an end. Benzema scored his 15th goal in the last 10 games, shooting from close range after a pass by Rodrigo two minutes into stoppage time.
The French striker is the top scorer in the Spanish league, scoring 25 goals and is spending one of his best seasons so far in Madrid. He has played a decisive role in the recent Champions League games against Paris Saint-Germain and Chelsea, scoring twice against Mallorca and Celta and playing a key role in Madrid's progress to the semi-finals. Going on like this, Benzema has a good chance of winning this year's Ballon d'Or.
