Ramos Injured But Madrid Go Top After Edging Out Real Sociedad
Real Madrid’s Spanish defender Sergio Ramos celebrates after scoring during the Spanish League football match between Real Sociedad and Real Madrid at the Reale Arena-Anoeta Stadium in San Sebastian on June 21, 2020. ANDER GILLENEA / AFPReal Madrid knocked Barcelona off the top of La Liga by beating Real Sociedad 2-1 on Sunday as Sergio Ramos rolled in another penalty before being forced off due to injury.
But Ramos limped off 10 minutes later with what looked like a knee injury, which will be a huge concern for Madrid if the problem proves serious. He was seen sitting with an ice-pack on his left knee in the stands. Yet it was Barca’s failure to score away at Sevilla that presented the opportunity to Madrid, whose victory in one of their toughest fixtures left has shifted the title race back in their favour.
Ramos’ 68 goals include 66 for Madrid and two for Sevilla while Sunday’s penalty was his seventh of this season, equalling his best haul for a single league campaign in his career. Even James Rodriguez was handed a rare outing, suggesting Bale has fallen even further down Zidane’s pecking order.
