(ANSA) – MADRID, FEBRUARY 25 – It doesn’t put on a show but Real Madrid wins against Sevilla in the Sunday postponement of the 26th matchday of the La Liga. Carlo Ancelotti’s team only needed a goal from Luka Modric in the 81st minute to win 1-0 and go +8 over Barcelona and +9 over Girona, who however have a game in hand. The Croatian’s goal would have been spoiled, according to the Sevillians, by Rudiger’s offside, but the position of the former Roma German was deemed irrelevant.
Previously, a goal by Lucas Vazquez had been annulled for Real due to a foul by Nacho on En-Nesyri detected with the help of VAR. But this evening was also that of the return of Sergio Ramos, former Real captain and for 16 years player of the ‘merengues’, at the Santiago Bernabeu, where the 2010 world champion defender did not set foot in the ‘Clasico’ against Barcelona on 1 March 2020. Today Ramos was applauded by the crowd during the warm-up (to which he responded placing a hand at heart level) and then at the moment of reading the lineups, when his name was announced by the speaker.
