La Liga, Week 11: Touchdown Real Madrid

The mid-week schedule for La Liga is complete, just in time for another round of game starting tomorrow. Hooray for time compressed scheduling because of major international competitions!

Barcelona and Real Madrid both avoided any post-Clásico slip-ups with wins in their respective matches. The Blaugrana took care of Celta Vigo 3-0 while Real Madrid pasted Sevilla 7-3. Cristiano Ronaldo led the way with yet another hat trick, the 22nd time in his La Liga career he’s scored three goals or more in a match, while Gareth Bale and Karim Benzema both chipped in with braces.
