This morning (April 1), Real Madrid welcomed Athletic Bilbao in round 30 of La Liga 2023/2024. Because both Girona and Barca had won previously, Real Madrid was forced to win 3 points to firmly secure the top spot in the rankings.

Home field advantage helps Real Madrid enter the game with enthusiasm. Right in the 8th minute of the match, the fans of the Royal Spanish team enjoyed joy when Rodrygo scored the opening goal of the match.

The early goal made it easier for Real Madrid to play in the following period. The White Vultures continuously created scoring opportunities, but were unable to take advantage of them successfully.

On Athletic Bilbao's side, this team played hard in the second half to find the equalizer. But before the attack could do anything, the away team's defense was defeated by Rodrygo again in the 73rd minute.

After scoring 2 goals, Real Madrid actively reduced the tempo of the match. Los Blancos still had more opportunities to score but the strikers could not convert them into goals.

In the end, Real Madrid won 2-0 against Athletic Bilbao. This victory helps the White Vultures secure first place, creating an 8-point gap with Barca in the championship race. Besides, Real Madrid has good momentum for the big battle with Man City in the quarterfinals of the 2023/2024 European Cup.
