Havana, November 28 (RHC)-- Real Madrid beat Sevilla 2-1 today and kept the top spot in the Spanish Soccer League. The "Merengues" won in a hard-fought duel and managed to get the three points at home, the Santiago Bernabeu stadium.

Sevilla took an early lead in the first half through Rafa Mir (12 min), who scored an unmarked goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois. Madrid equalized after a strong shot by Mendi, poorly defended by Sevilla goalkeeper Bono, who gave the rebound to Karim Benzema (32 min).

Despite the fact that Julen Lopetegui's disciples deserved better luck in the first half, a 1-1 draw would mark the end of the first half.

In the second half, the match continued evenly, perhaps with less pace than in the first 45 minutes, but with chances for both teams. The Reds closed their defensive spaces well until a beautiful play by Vinícius Jr. (87 mins) elegantly chested down a cross and from the edge of the box he struck a powerful shot to the far post to give the decisive advantage to the team coached by Italian Carlo Ancelotti.

With this victory, Madrid retained the top of the table, now four points ahead of Atletico and Real Sociedad and five ahead of their victims of the day.

Today's results:

-Betis 3 - Levante 1

-Espanyol 1 - Real Sociedad 0

-Cadiz 1 - Atlético de Madrid 4

-Real Madrid 2 - Sevilla 1
