Barca and Real march on

Barcelona keeping up the pressure with a 0-2 win against RCD Mallorca at the Iberostar stadium, despite being reduced to ten men after Thiago was dismissed for a second bookable offence.

Messi, and who would have guessed it, gave Barcelona the lead in the 25th minute with Piqué adding the second midway through the second half.

A geat start for Real Madrid with Higuaín finding the net after just 6 minutes and the Ronaldo and Benzema grabbing two apiece to give the leaders a comfortable 5-1 victory over Real Sociedad.

Prieto was the scorer for Real Sociedad shortly before the break, although the ball took a deflection off Ramos and could end up being credited as an ‘own goal’. Madrid maintain their six point advantage at the top of La Liga.
