Yesterday night Real Madrid beat Celta Vigo 2-0 to go top of the league with 36 points and they are one point above Atlético Madrid.

Atlético Madrid have played less games than Real Madrid has so they have the chance of getting back to the top on Sunday in their game against Alaves. 

The first goal was a header scored by Lucas Vázquez in the sixth minute as Asensio crossed the ball to the far post. 

Real Madrid’s coach Zinedine Zidane said that Real Madrid played a great game and they were in control since the beginning  of the game as their “transitions from switching from defense to offense were brilliant “.
