Real Madrid definitely turned on the style after an unflattering first half performance against Leganes in their 3rd La Liga fixture of the new campaign.
The sides went into the break even following a spectacular goal by Gareth Bale which was followed by a quick reply from Guido Carrillo.
Striker Carrillo on loan from Southampton scored from the spot to ensure the sides went into the break on even terms.

Despite some first-half troubles Madrid looked like a rejuvenated side after the break and Los Blancos scored 3 goals in quick succession which put the tie out of Leganes’ hands.
Talisman Karim Benzema scored two goals in the 48th and 61st minute.
Captain Sergio Ramos then scored from the spot after Marco Asensio was brought down to complete Madrid’s second half overhaul of their opponents.
