Real Madrid Castilla are offering no let-up in their bid for top spot. Enzo Fernández and Javi Muñoz were the scorers on Sunday as the reserve team came away from Guadalajara with their second straight win in Segunda B Group II. The result keeps them within three points of leaders Barakaldo, who visit the Estadio Alfredo Di Stéfano next week in the matchday's stand-out fixture.Zinedine Zidane's men took early control of the encounter, dominating the midfield and dictating the rhythm of the play. And they did not need long to set themselves on the path towards victory, as full-back Dani Fernández - proving highly active down the right flank - joined in the attack and got to the byline before setting upto give Castilla a 14th-minute lead.

Guadalajara sought to produce a reaction for their home support, bouncing back from going behind to create increasing danger in and around the goalmouth of Castilla custodian Carlos Abad, who prevented the equaliser on the half-hour mark when he kept out a powerful effort from David Buyo inside the area. With the Canary Islander a safe pair of hands between the sticks and his outfield team-mates well organised at the back, the Whites went in for the break ahead.



Immediate reply

In the second half, the hosts took advantage of a corner kick to level up the match through Guillem Martí on 64 minutes. However, Castilla wasted no time in conjuring up a response as, just five minutes later, Muñoz found the net after great play from Aleix Febas, and earned victory for a Castilla side who refuse to give in in the battle for first place in their group.
