La Liga!! Ronaldo Scores Twice As Real Madrid Beat Sporting Gijon 2-1 To Go Seven-Points Clear At The Top!!
Cristiano Ronaldo scored twice but Real Madrid rode their luck to beat Sporting Gijon and go seven points clear at the top of La Liga – for a few hours.
The European champions looked in control when Ronaldo scored twice in the first 18 minutes.
His opener was a penalty and his second was a header from Nacho’s cross – his eighth La Liga goal in four games.
But Carlos Carmona pulled one back and Duje Cop missed a penalty for the visitors with 13 minutes left.
The Croatia international, who appeared to check his pulse just before taking the kick, fired high and wide after Nacho was penalised for fouling Victor Rodriguez.
