Real Madrid returned to winning ways, as the Los Blancos demolished Almeria 4-2 at the Santiago Bernabéu.

It was a top class performance from Carlo Ancelotti’s men, as the Italian had claimed that his players have learned from their 4-2 defeat to Girona.

Karim Benzema scored a first-half hat-trick on his return to the team. A loss in concentration led to Lazaro scoring for the visitors just before the break.

Immediately after the restart, Rodrygo stunned with a shot from distance right into the top corner.

Another sloppy play after the hour mark allowed Lucas Robertone score the second goal for Almeria.

The game ended 4-2, but it could easily have been more for Madrid.
