Real Madrid have consolidated their second place in the Spanish soccer league with a 37th round away win at Sevilla FC. The Spanish record champions won 2-1 on Saturday thanks to a brace from striker Rodrygo. The Brazilian came on in the 29th and 69th minutes while Karim Benzema was out with a foot injury. ÖFB team support David Alaba played through for the “Royal” in central defense.
Real are four points clear of city rivals Atletico, who play Real Sociedad on Sunday. Sevilla are tenth in La Liga. The chances of being represented in a European competition next year are slim.
