La Liga: Real Madrid 3-1 Sporting Gijón
Table of Contents
Real Madrid recorded their ninth successive victory in the league with a 3-1 victory over battling Sporting Gijón at the Bernabéu.
The home side produced little of note during a disappointing first half against a determined Sporting, and a shock looked on the cards when the mid-table visitors took a 53rd-minute lead through David Barral.
However, that goal served to spark Real into life and within four minutes they were 2-1 ahead thanks to strikes from Rafael van der Vaart and Xabi Alonso.
The in-form Gonzalo Higuaín sealed the win in the 68th minute as the Argentina striker ran into space before sliding a left-footed shot under Juan Pablo Colinas.
