Real Madrid rose to the top of La Liga on Sunday as Vinicius Junior and Karim Benzama both scored in a 2-0 win over Levante
Vinicius, who was decisive in Madrid’s win over Real Valladolid on Wednesday, looked set to see Levante as well, before Benzema scored his first goal of the season late
Madrid have now recorded three clean sheets from their four opening games, although a draw at Real Sociedad gave Barcelona an early advantage, who will play in Sevilla later on Sunday
Madrid and Barca had previously played in the first-ever women’s Clasico after Madrid finally launched their women’s team this season Yet Barcelona showed their superiority in a 4-0 rout
But the men’s team have become something of a defensive juggernaut under Zidane after their strength and resilience formed the basis of their successful title bid last season
Levante, meanwhile, only managed one win in the first four matches and that loss means they find themselves in the relegation places
Vinicius put Madrid ahead after 16 minutes when Levante failed to clear a corner and the Brazilian calmly curled up for his second goal in two games
He could have made two but surprised a pass intended for Benzema then Levante hit the crossbar, Nikola Vuckevic at the back post almost taking advantage of a hesitation from Thibaut Courtois
Levante struggled to cope with pressure from Madrid and Benzema and Vinicius are both expected to score when they picked up the ball twice from dangerous positions
Sergio Ramos also had a header ruled out for offside, but Levante went close to a late equalizer as Clerc and Enis Bardhi tested Courtois
But Benzema tore himself away from the break in added time and finished for a convincing victory
