On Saturday, four matches of the XXVIII round of the "Primera" championship were played in Spain.
The leaders of the tournament table, the footballers of Madrid's "Real", had a hard time. Carlo Ancelotti's players only managed to defeat "Malaga" by a minimal difference of 0-1 after a tough battle.
The only and winning goal for the "royal" club was scored by Cristiano Ronaldo, who marked the 23rd minute after a precise pass from Gareth Bale.
Throughout the match, the "Real" team dominated for a long time. The goal scorer C. Ronaldo had many opportunities to score, but at the end of the match, the pressure from the visitors forced the "white" team to sweat.
The Spanish vice-champions in the "Primera" championship have gathered 70 points and have a 6-point advantage over the nearest pursuer, although both Madrid's "Atletico" and "Barcelona" each have one game in hand.
Also celebrating a minimal victory is the second-placed Madrid's "Atletico" team, who defeated Barcelona's "Espanyol" resistance on their own field.
In other matches, Valencia's "Levante" lost to Vigo's "Celta" with a minimal result, while Madrid's "Rayo Vallecano" celebrated a confident victory against "Almeria".
