It was raining cats and dogs, Bale, Kroos and Varane were injured and Real Madrid have won with a lot of luck 2-1 against Gijon in the 13th round of la Liga.

Cristiano Ronaldo has double sealed Real Madrid's victory against Sporting Gijon. Real Madrid have taken the lead early on after just five minutes. Cristiano Ronaldo converted his side's penalty into the first goal match. 

The Portuguese wanted more and wasn't satistfied with just one goal. Therefore he scored his second one in minute 18. Sporting fight back and Carmona scores his side's first goal ten minutes before the half-time. 

Sporting had the chance to equalize in the second half but failed. Real Madrid weren't concentrated enough but won the game. They are still La Liga leaders with 33 points, having seven points more than Barcelona. However, this difference could change tomorrow, as Barcelona will face Real Sociedad.
