Match Report
In a clash between top against bottom in LaLiga Santander, the gulf in class was evident throughout, and was reflected as such in the scoreline.
The hosts took the lead after just nine minutes through an unlikely source, as Ferland Mendy burst forward to slot the ball home.
Fede Valverde almost made it 2-0 soon after, as he prodded the ball towards goal from an inswinging cross, only to see his effort hit the post.
Karim Benzema, back in the side after being rested against Atletico Madrid, was back amongst the goals, getting on the end of a Vinicius cross at the back post.
The match began to resemble a training match by the half-hour mark, as Madrid walked in their third goal. Rodrygo combined with Luka Modric before the youngster tapped in from close range.
Modric was again the provider on the stroke of half-time, this time playing in Vinicius who slotted home smartly from an angle.
The second half was all about Vinicius as the forward scored twice more to complete his hat-trick - his first for Real Madrid. On 67 minutes, he had Benzema to thank after the Frenchman danced around the goalkeeper before passing to him almost on the goal-line to tap home.
And the final blow came on 83 minutes as he benefitted from a Luka Jovic pass before tucking away the finish with his left foot.
The win serves as a confidence boost for Real Madrid who have already been crowned champions, but sadly for Levante, their defeat means they are relegated from LaLiga Santander.

It's now no debate that Vinicius Jr is no longer a young star but he is now a superstar. Never should he be compared to Fati again [ko]

TAA might be the best attacking RB at the world. But if Liverpool plan to win UCL I think they need to use a more defensive RB. It will be hard to stop Vini for TAA. Main reason Barcelona shocked RM is Araujo and Chelsea almost make a comeback coz Vini was stopped by Reece. Also with Manchester city, walker was able to stop Vini but suddenly Pep decided to sub him and paid the price. Just like teams used two or three defenders just to mark Messi in the past, it's necessary to deploy a defensive RB to mark Vini. Otherwise he is going to destroy you. Have a strong feeling TAA going to cost Liverpool the UCL title.

I don't even know who's to praise most..... vinicius Jr hat-rick..... modric hat-rick of assists.... Rodrygo continue to score... benzema continue to push for balloon d'or. camavinga continue to confuse people about how much Madrid paid for his service.... valverde takes the midfield with his electric pace.... Vallejo decided to confuse ancelloti about his decision next season..... nacho remain the utility Madristar with his leadership ability.... TODAY IS A GOOD DAY

It’s injured that’s holding Fati This season he played 13 games and score 6 goals See don’t worry we pray for fit fati next season
Don't bring unnecessary arguments here. Go and sleep, even Rodrygo is better than your overhyped Fati

There is no full back in the world right now that can shut Vinicius out of a match for the full 90 minutes. It's just not happening. He'll get away, at some point. It always happens.
