Madrid squashes Betis, eyes Dortmund - FOXSports.com

Mesut Ozil scored twice in Real Madrid's 3-1 win over Real Betis on Saturday as the Spanish side warmed up for its Champions League semifinal against Borussia Dortmund.

Karim Benzema passed for Oezil to net Madrid's opener in the 45th minute before the France striker polished off a counterattack in the 57th.

Oezil struck again in stoppage time after Betis substitute Jorge Molina pulled one back with a penalty kick in the 72nd following defender Nacho Fernandez's foul of Ruben Castro in the area.

Madrid's Spanish league victory came at a cost, however, with Marcelo and Luka Modric both needing to be substituted for injuries.
