Spanish Champions F.C. Real Madrid set a new La Liga record by playing 40 matches without losing a singleone with an exciting 3-3 draw against F.C. Sevilla on Thursday.

Sevilla were on the verge of stopping the record-breaking attempt as they led Ream Madrid by 3-1 with seven minutes left in the game. They were however undone with a last minute goal scored by the ever reliable Karim Benzema to pull Real Madrid level in a highly pulsating game.

The last-minute strike by Karim Benzema extended Madrid’s undefeated streak and surpassed bitter rivals Barcelona’s run of 39 games without defeat under Luis Enrique last season.

The European champions progress to the quarter-finals of the competition 6-3 on aggregate after winning the first leg at Santiago Bernabeu 3-0 last week.

Madrid’s quest to break Barca’s record in all competitions appeared to be over when Vicente Iborra gave Sevilla a two-goal cushion on the night with 13 minutes remaining.
