Midweek action in Liga F saw Hayley Raso find the back of the net for the first time for Real Madrid, helping Los Blancos to a 5-1 victory over Real Betis.
Watch the goal below.
Real Madrid hosted Real Betis in a midweek fixture in Spain, playing their Round 1 fixture that was delayed at the start of the season due to player protests. After picking up her first start for Madrid over the weekend, Raso was named on the bench in the fixture.
The home side got off to a fast start with Maite Oroz finding the back of the net just two minutes in to give Real Madrid a narrow 1-0 lead heading into the break. Raso came off the bench to start the second half and made an immediate impact on the game, opening her account for her new side after getting on the end of Athenea del Castillo's cross into the box, slotting her chance past the keeper to double the home side's lead.
