Real Madrid 2-0 Mallorca: Another gift for Los Blancos
Vinicius scored the opener but it should not have counted, Ramos the second
Another game down, another dubious decision. This time a foul by Dani Carvajal on Dani Rodriguez in midfield, which was not blown for or viewed by the referee on VAR, and it ended up with a goal for Vinicius Junior.
It was well finished, a nice dink, but it shouldn’t have counted. That’s the problem. And after that it was easy for Real Madrid.
Vinicius hit the crossbar with another lob and Sergio Ramos scored a free-kick in the second half, perfectly placed. He can’t stop scoring at the moment.
Mallorca gave Luka Romero a debut, with the Mexican becoming La Liga’s youngest ever player at 15 years and 219 days old.
But this game, at the Alfredo di Stefano stadium at Real Madrid’s Valdebebas training facilities, was settled early on, by another problematic goal - following what happened between Real Sociedad and Real Madrid at the weekend.
Madrid go back top of Barcelona, on head-to-head record, with both teams feel on 68 points from 31 games. There are seven left.
