The win now takes the Santiago Bernabeu side 10 points behind league leaders FC Barcelona, who happen to be their bitter rivals. Interestingly, Los Blancos face the Catalan giants in their next La Liga fixture after the international break. The Madrid giants will be hoping to keep piling more pressure on the league leaders as they hope to reduce the gap between them two seven points by securing a win when the two sides meet at the Nou Camp.
In the first leg of the fixture, Barcelona walloped the Santiago Bernabeu outfit 4-0 and the Nou Camp visitors will be hoping to revenge against the hosts when they meet on April 2, 2016.
Second-placed Atletico Madrid blew their chance of catching up with Barcelona at the top of the table by suffering a shocking 2-1 defeat in the hands of relegation-threatened Sporting Gijon. This presents Real Madrid the perfect opportunity to take over the second position while hoping that Barca will continue dropping points as they did today against Villarreal despite leading 2-0 at half-time.
