Real Madrid fight back to defeat Real Zaragoza
Real Madrid defeated Real Zaragoza 3-1 at the Bernabeu yesterday.
Real Madrid bounced back from their Copa del Rey exit by maintaining their momentum in the Primera Division with a 3-1 victory over bottom club Real Zaragoza at the Bernabeu.
Jose Mourinho's side, who were knocked out of the cup by Barcelona in midweek despite a battling 2-2 draw at the Nou Camp, headed into the weekend five points clear of their fierce rivals at the summit but went behind to Angel Lafita's 11th-minute opener.
However, Kaka equalised just after the half-hour mark and Cristiano Ronaldo put the hosts ahead at the start of the second period before Mesut Ozil sealed the turnaround.
