Match overview:
The Whites had various chances to score but failed to due to a shortage of luck and Getafe's tremendous work at the back. The latter happened one minute before the 30' of play. It was good individual play from Karim Benzema, who feinted on the back line, left the defender on the ground and crossed back in. James' free shot from the penalty spot was cleared for a corner by Lago. The last move of the first half was even clearer. Toni Kroos' shot, a free ball hit from the edge of the area with his left foot, hit the bar. The crossbar prevented Madrid from breaking the deadlock at the end of the first half but at the start of the second it was Codina who did well to keep them out the play was brilliant Isco got away from an opponent, he combined with James in the 53rd minute who passed through the defence but Benzema was unable to take advantage in the one-on-one. Four minutes later, the Colombian had the chance, but the home goalkeeper twice stopped his shots from the edge of the area.
The leaders' siege grew more intense as the minutes ticked on and it was only a question of time before the Madrid scored. And that is how it was. The goal was scored by Cristiano Ronaldo, but the amazing move was created by Benzema. The French player's move in the 65' was reminiscent of the masterpiece that Butragueño left for posterity against Cádiz. Benzema got the ball as he was leaning over, he pretended to cross to get away from the first opponent, and without losing sight of the fact the Portuguese player was unmarked, he managed to keep control of the ball on the by-line in order to trick the second home defender by stepping on the ball with his right foot before assisting with his left. 1-0 RM.
Madrid had done the most difficult part, but they didn't sit back, and four minutes later they killed off the game as Bale finished off a textbook counter-attacking move following a measured James assist coming from the left wing. 2-0 RM. It wasn't the last goal from Madrid as Cristiano Ronaldo finished off the thrashing in the 79th. Once again, James provided the assist and the Portuguese player headed the ball into the net from the penalty spot. 3-0 RM. Real Madrid, who kept a clean sheet, are top of Liga BBVA with a game in hand.
Next game up for Real Madrid is against Córdoba away on Saturday kick-off 16:00 Local Time (15:00 GMT). Getafe face Celta Vigo at home on Monday kick-off 20:45 Local Time (19:45 GMT).
