Karim Benzema scored three goals in the first half as Real Madrid won against Almeria 4-2 in a football game on Saturday. This helped Real Madrid stay in second place and keep their hopes of winning the championship alive. They now have 68 points, which is eight points less than the team in first place, Barcelona. Barcelona will play against Real Betis later on Saturday.
Benzema scored two goals for Real Madrid. The first was a shot from a Vinicius Jr pass, and the second was from a nice play by Rodrygo who passed the ball to Benzema.
Benzema scored his third goal in the game by kicking the ball into the goal from a penalty after one of his teammates was fouled in the special box. Benzema is almost as good as another player named Lewandowski in scoring goals for their team in the Spanish league.
Lázaro tried to help his team by scoring, but the other team scored again soon after. Rodrygo made a great shot into the top corner of the goal.
Real Madrid had lots of chances to score more goals, but some of their players missed really easy shots and hit the goalpost a few times. The referee thought Real Madrid should get a penalty, but after looking at the video, he changed his mind because something else happened before the penalty that wasn’t fair.
During a soccer game, a player named Lucas Robertone scored a goal by using his head to hit the ball into the net. This happened because another player named Toni Kroos made a mistake by giving the ball to the other team too close to their own goal. After the game, another player named Rodrygo said he was happy to have helped his team by giving them a good pass and also scoring a goal.
The soccer player did a cool move called a backheel dribble to get around the other player and pass the ball to a teammate. It was really pretty and helped the team score a goal.
