A late goal by Toni Kroos sealed victory as Real Madrid defeated an impressive Celta Vigo side 2-1 to win their first home La Liga game of the campaign Saturday. Atletico Madrid was held to a goalless draw at newcomer Leganes and already trails Real by four points while champion Barcelona visits Athletic Bilbao Sunday. Alvaro Morata scored his first goal for Real since returning from Juventus to break the deadlock on the hour before Fabian Orellana leveled for Celta in the 67th minute. Kroos then finished off substitute James Rodriguez's cut-back with a low drive from the edge of the area in the 81st minute, giving his side six points from their two league matches. "We were made to suffer against a team that were a lot better than I expected especially in attack," Real coach Zinedine Zidane told a news conference. "They caused problems for us on a few occasions but that's normal...it's never easy to win." Croatia playmaker Luka Modric rattled the bar and tested goalkeeper Sergio Alvarez with two other efforts from distance but Celta's Theo Bogonda squandered the first clear opening, firing wide when John Guidetti was unmarked in the area. Gareth Bale clipped the bar at the other end with a second-half free kick and the breakthrough arrived soon after. The return of prolific striker Antoine Griezmann could not help Atletico break down Leganes. Home keeper Jon Ander Serantes kept out efforts from the France international, Kevin Gameiro and Yannick Carrasco in an inspired display. Atletico was involved in a thrilling three-pronged title race until the penultimate week of last season but has drawn both opening games against promoted sides, failing to win its first two matches for the first time under coach Diego Simeone. Elsewhere, Real Sociedad won 2-0 at promoted Osasuna thanks to a strike from new signing Juanmi and an own goal by Unai Garcia while Eibar beat Valencia 1-0 as Pedro Leon scored the only goal on the rebound after his penalty was saved. Lyon humbled by Dijon In-form Alexandre Lacazette scored before coming off injured in the first half as Lyon collapsed to a 4-2 defeat away at promoted Dijon in Ligue 1 Saturday. Guingamp is the provisional leader of the fledgling table after a 2-0 win at promoted Nancy, although they are level on points with Nice, who drew 1-1 at home to Lille. Caen beat Bastia 2-0, Metz defeated Angers by the same score and Rennes came from behind to draw 1-1 at Montpellier. Marseille recorded its first win of the season Friday, beating Lorient 2-0 at the Stade Velodrome with Remy Cabella and Bafetimbi Gomis netting. Khedira hits Juve winner A second-half winner from Sami Khedira made it two wins from two for Juventus as Napoli edged nine-man AC Milan in a dramatic 4-2 win Saturday. Juventus, which started its title defense with a 2-1 win over Fiorentina last week, was kept on a tight rein by Lazio throughout a first half of few chances at the Stadio Olimpico. Napoli made amends for Higuain's shock departure by signing Arkadiusz Milik, and the Poland striker made sure fans got to know his name by hitting a first-half brace in a thrilling 4-2 win at the San Paolo. — Agencies
