Real Madrid recorded a fine 4-1 win over neighbours Atletico Madrid as they continue their La Liga title push. Elsewhere Barcelona lost 1-0 at Getafe.
This year’s Madrid derby produced an early shock when Adrian shot Atletico ahead as early as the 15th minute.
However Los Blancos rallied back and earned a penalty when Atletico shot-stopper Thibaut Courtois felled Karim Benzema.
A red card swiftly followed as Cristiano Ronaldo swept home the equalizing penalty. Goals by Angel Di Maria, Gonzalo Higuain and another Ronaldo penalty settled the clash as Real moved six points clear in La Liga following Barcelona’s shock 1-0 defeat to Getafe.
