It was Real Madrid 2-0 Espanyol at Santiago Bernabeu on Sunday.
Real Madrid dominance was rewarded with a goal in the first half through a goal from Isco at the 30th minutes.
Ronaldo sliped a neat ball through the defence, Isco ran on through and toe-pokes the ball through Pau Lopez’s legs.
And Real nearly make it two immediately. They win the ball back in midfield, Isco clips a long pass from right to left, Ronaldo lines up a volley and catches it pretty well, but it goes over the bar.
To give you an idea of how much Real dominated possession/territory at the first half, they’re essentially playing a 1-1-3-6 formation. Nacho and Achraf were two of the wingers, the rest are just sort of attacking.
When Espanyol really should level, but instead they’re now 2-0 down. Isco also scored the second goal. He hit the back of the net on the 71 minute. He was the one that score the opening goal in the 30th minute.
It was more of a rough goal as Ramos was tackled in his own six-yard box, the ball was cut back to Baptistao with what is close to an open goal but Nacho is there to do just enough and put him off. Then a few seconds later, Darder is robbed in midfield by Ronaldo, Real streak forwards and Isco finds himself in some space, near the penalty spot, and he guides it into the corner.
