REAL MADRID defeated 3-1 REAL SPORTING DE GIJON to keep the Top place on the ladder, but suffered tonight. Real looked too much at ease & without any tension which allowed the visitors to grow in confidence. In fact, Sporting gave signs that they were on a roll soon & BARRAL finally put a big scare throughout the "Santiago Bernabeu Stadium" when he riffled home a goal for Sporting in the 52th min.
This seemed to wake up Real who reacted with a quickly, when VAN DER VAART scored a goal when the ball bounced off the Sporting goalie Pablo from a Ronaldo free-kick "rocket". Sporting claimed that Van der Vaart hand-balled but the referee gave it his OK in the 54th min. Another followed in the 57th min with a header from XABI ALONSO that meant his teams second goal.
In the 67th min Sporting would claim a penalty, & in the counter-attack HIGUAIN scored Real Madrid´s third goal in the & his 20th this season. Watch the goal on the below VIDEO:
