Real Madrid reasserted their dominance in the La Liga title race with a resounding 4-0 victory over Celta Vigo, extending their lead at the top to seven points. Despite missing suspended star midfielder Jude Bellingham, Carlo Ancelotti’s team took control early, with Vinicius Jr. netting the opener in the first half.
Though Celta Vigo showed some fight after the break, Madrid’s defense held firm. The hosts then sealed the win with a flurry of late goals. A deflected header from Antonio Rudiger broke the deadlock, followed by a defensive blunder that led to an own goal. Youngster Arda Guler capped off the victory with a clinical finish for his first Real Madrid goal.
The Bernabeu crowd, initially restless after a tense period, erupted in celebration as the late goals secured the win. The victory comes as a crucial boost, following pressure from rivals Girona and Barcelona, and a less-than-convincing midweek Champions League performance.
