Real Madrid added three more points at the Martnez Valero to solidify their position at the top of LaLiga. In a match they controlled from the beginning to the end and in which they had three goals disallowed by the VAR for offside, Carlo Ancelotti's team, who are still unbeaten in official games, defeated Elche to secure their ninth victory in the competition.

Valverde's left-footed goal put the Whites on track, and Ballon d'Or winner Benzema sealed the victory in the second half after a lovely backheel from Rodrygo, who also provided the assist for Asensio's third goal.
