Ronaldo rescues Real with late penalty @realmadrid @Cristiano @LigaBBVA

An unconvincing Real Madrid needed a
Cristiano Ronaldo penalty deep into stoppage
time to snatch a 2-1 win at promoted Elche on
Wednesday that kept them hard on the heels
of La Liga leaders Barcelona and Atletico
Madrid.
The Portugal forward smashed home a free
kick to put Real ahead in the 51st minute
against a plucky Elche side before substitute
Richmond Boakye looked to have secured a
point when he headed past Diego Lopez in the
91st minute.
There was more drama to come, however, as
Real won a corner and the referee pointed to
the penalty spot after Pepe tangled with
midfielder Carlos Sanchez in the area.
As the match ticked into its 94th minute,
Ronaldo calmly struck the ball into the corner
for his sixth goal in six matches this term.
