Real Madrid Bounces Back with Emphatic Win over Celta Vigo
Real Madrid showcased a dominant performance as they secured a convincing 4-0 victory against Celta Vigo, silencing recent criticism from the fans. The win allowed Madrid to extend their lead to seven points at the summit of the Spanish league, bouncing back from recent lackluster displays.
Vinícius Júnior continued his fine form by netting his third goal in four games, contributing significantly to Madrid’s triumph. The team’s coach, Carlo Ancelotti, emphasized the improved intensity and attitude his side displayed, a stark contrast to recent outings that raised concerns among supporters.
Key players such as Antonio Rüdiger and the debutant Arda Güler played pivotal roles in Madrid’s victory, with Rüdiger setting up two goals and Güler marking his scoring debut. The win cemented Madrid’s position at the top, with challengers like Girona and Barcelona in pursuit.
Real Madrid’s home dominance at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium continued, with an unbeaten streak of 18 matches this season. Their last loss at home was against Villarreal in April 2023. Additionally, Madrid remains unbeaten in the league for 22 consecutive matches, showcasing their consistency and resilience.
Despite Celta Vigo’s efforts, highlighted by a single shot on target, they were unable to break Madrid’s stronghold. The defeat leaves Rafa Benítez’s side just outside the relegation zone, intensifying their battle for survival in the league.
