7-up Madrid back in sparkling form

Gareth Bale, Cristiano Ronaldo and Nacho all scored twice as Real Madrid got back to winning ways with a 7-1 victory over Deportivo La Coruna yesterday.

Bale took his tally to five goals in his last four matches to help Madrid to only a second win in their last six matches in all competitions. Former Spurs midfielder Luka Modric was also on target in a victory that moves Real up to fourth in La Liga.
