The Catalans lead Atletico Madrid on goal difference and Real Madrid by two points as well as having a game in hand on their rivals from the Spanish capital.

Barcelona have had an incredible 2015 as a calender year, winning La Liga, the UEFA Champions League, the FIFA Club World Cup, the Copa Del Rey and the UEFA Super Cup as they swept all before them worldwide.

While Neymar’s penalty kick hit the crossbar, Betis defender inadvertently put the ball in his own net during a battle with Ivan Rakitic to control the rebound.

The win took some pressure off beleaguered coach Rafa Benitez, who was jeered when his name was announced before the match by some of the Santiago Bernabeu crowd for Madrid’s erratic form this season.

“We have a squad with a lot of desire that wants to achieve special things”. It was Benteke’s sixth goal in seven career games against Sunderland – more than he has scored against any other club – and another step in the right direction for a player who hasn’t been a regular since joining from Aston Villa for 32.5 million pounds (then $50.7 million) in July.

“(Ronaldo) accepted the responsibility after the missed penalty and put the team on his back”, Benitez said.

“I congratulate the players for their attitude from start to finish”.

Atletico looked to be heading for a second consecutive disappointing result after losing 1-0 at Malaga before the 10-day winter break as Rayo’s defence – fresh from conceding 10 to Real Madrid last time out – stood firm for 88 minutes at Vallecas.
