Gareth Bale became the leading British goalscorer in La Liga history as Real Madrid thumped Sevilla in an action-packed match at the Bernabeu.
The Welshman twice hit the woodwork and had a strike disallowed before tapping in his 43rd goal in the Spanish top flight, beating Gary Lineker’s tally.
Madrid led through Karim Benzema’s wonderful half-volley, before Sevilla’s Kevin Gameiro missed a penalty.
Cristiano Ronaldo and Jese, either side of Bale’s goal, sealed the win.
However, despite producing one of their best performances in recent weeks, Zinedine Zidane’s side are still 10 points adrift of arch-rivals Barcelona in the title race.
