Spanish La Liga News :: Madrid edge closer to Crown with 3-0 win

Posted on 2008-04-27 by Gooner

Real Madrid moved a step closer to clinching the Primera Liga crown on Sunday but it was not such a good day for Levante whose relegation from the top flight was confirmed.

Javier Saviola opened the scoring for Madrid as the defending champions defeated Athletic Bilbao 3-0 at the Bernabeu, following up after Armando Ribeiro had parried Robinho's shot.

Joseba Garmendia had a golden chance to restore parity nine minutes from half-time but his spot-kick was brilliantly saved by the outstanding Iker Casillas.

Arjen Robben and Gonzalo Higuain were introduced in the 72nd minute and it proved a masterstroke from Bernd Schuster as both found themselves on the scoresheet within four minutes to make the points safe.

The result leaves Madrid 10 points clear of second-placed Villarreal with four games remaining.
