Another good win for Madrid, who move top of the table ahead of Real Sociedad. Two goals either side of the break give Madrid a good win over a brave Huesca, who lacked quality in front of goal to take an early lead in the first half. Madrid’s quality came through on 40 minutes with a wonderful strike from Hazard.
“We think we played really well until Hazard scored his goal on 40 minutes. It’s always difficult when you don’t take your chances against these big teams. We haven’t won in 8 games but we trust the boss and we have been unlucky in previous games.” – Pedro Mosquera
“We have showed that we are going well with today’s win. We enjoy today’s result and think about the next game too. We’ll keep improving as a team.” – Fede Valverde
Benzema heads home a lovely move from Madrid. Marcelo finds Rodrygo at the back post, who finds Benzema with a header. The Frenchman gets his second of the game and third in the league for 2020/21.

Benzema picks Valverde out at the back stick, the Uruguayan takes it down and smacks it low and hard into the far corner. Great strike!

Benzema gets his second goal of the week with a volley right before the break, which gives Huesca a mountain to climb in the second half. The away side started very well, before a wonderstrike from Eden Hazard put Madrid in front on 40 minutes.

An absolute screamer from Eden Hazard! He buries it from at least 25 yards out with his left foot. It’s his first goal in just under 400 days for Real Madrid, on his first start this season.
