A superb counter-attack saw Steven N’Zonzi set up Layun and he lashed the ball home on the stroke of half-time. Real Madrid were handed a lifeline early in the second half when Lucas Vázquez was brought down in the penalty area. Sevilla looked to have sealed the points when Gabriel Mercado’s speculative effort took a huge deflection off Ramos and gave Casilla no chance. Mayoral’s header was followed by another Ramos penalty, but there was no more time for Real to snatch an unlikely, and perhaps undeserved, equaliser. Ousmane Dembélé starred as Barcelona maintained their bid to complete the league season unbeaten by defeating Villarreal 5-1 at the Camp Nou.
