Real Mallorca's Ivorian forward Lago Junior challenges Real Madrid's Belgian goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois and Real Madrid's Spanish defender Dani Carvajal during the Spanish league football match. MADRID: Sergio Ramos' sensational free-kick helped Real Madrid move back above Barcelona to the top of La Liga as they defeated Real Mallorca 2-0 on Wednesday .
Yet an underwhelming display is unlikely to push Bale back into Zidane's preferred eleven as Vinicius enhanced his case with another lively, if erratic, performance.Ramos, though, stole the show with his brilliant free-kick, taking his personal tally to a career-best eight goals for the season, after he became La Liga's highest ever scoring defender on Sunday by scoring a penalty against Real Sociedad.
Mallorca, who remain 18th in the table, always looked like one of Madrid's more straight-forward assignments during the run-in, even if they claimed a stunning victory over them in October to put Zidane under serious pressure. Hazard freed Vinicius, who took too long over his shot, but if that was the worst of Vinicius' finishing, the best was to come soon after.
