Real sweat at home

Real Madrid warmed up for their Champions League semifinal first-leg with Borussia Dortmund on Wednesday with a hard-fought 3-1 victory over Real Betis at the Santiago Bernabeu.
After a slow opening by the hosts they went ahead just before half-time when Mesut Ozil latched onto Karim Benzema's through ball to slot home.
Benzema then made it two in similar fashion as he took advantage of Cristiano Ronaldo's pass to beat Betis keeper Adrian, but Jorge Molina's penalty halved the deficit for the visitors after Ruben Castro had been brought down by Nacho.
Castro then came close to stealing a draw for Betis as he hit the bar two minutes from time before Ozil settled it in stoppage time.
Jose Mourinho had sprung a surprise by handing a debut to Brazilian midfielder Carlos Henrique Casemiro as he made a raft of changes with Wednesday's match in mind.
