Madrid appeared in clinical
mood again and it took ronaldo only three minutes to break the deadlock, as he collected Luka Modric's pass and confidently placed an effort into the bottom far corner.
Stats:That strike was his 19th in 15 matches this season.
Making it his best start to a campaign, and although Rayo had a goal disallowed through Iago Falque, Madrid continued to stretch the hosts' defence. Bale set up the next two goals at Estadio
de Vallecas as his right-footed cross was headed past Ruben by benzema after 31 minutes, the Frenchman's third goal of
the week. And the Welshman squared to Ronaldo three minutes into the second half for Real's third, with the visitors in control.
But the rampant visitors saw their
progress halted soon after as Dani
Carvajal brought down Viera in the box on 53 minutes, and the striker picked himself up to convert the penalty.He was afforded the opportunity to reduce the deficit further just two minutes later - Marcelo the offender this time, fouling Falque after Joaquin Larrivey's header had come back
off the crossbar. Viera kept his cool to double his tally and bring it back to 3-2, with Madrid clearly rocking.
With so many twist and turns in the final 25minutes,Madrid stood the test to claim the points and extend Rayo's losing streak against their illustrious neighbours to 11 matches.
