Gareth Bale stars in Real Madrids victory

 

Real Madrid 3-0 Leganes. Welsh international, Bale stars as Zidane's men march on to victory.

Gareth Bale struck twice as Real Madrid eased past Leganes 3-0 on Sunday to stay top of La Liga.

The Welshman latched onto a clever ball from Isco to break past Serantes inside the penalty area, putting his side 1-0 up with one of their first clear-cut chances of the game.

Gareth Bale struck again when he reacted to an Alvaro Morata header from Toni Kroos' free kick, poking home from close range. Alvaro Morata added a third in the second half with a well-placed, side-footed strike.

The victory takes Real Madrid five points clear of Barcelona who travel to Sevilla on Sunday evening.
