Madrid: Gareth Bale hit both goals as Real Madrid extended their lead at the top of La Liga to five points with a 3-0 win over Leganes yesterday.
Bale signed one of the most lucrative deals in football history to keep him at the European champions until 2021. He struck twice in seven minutes just before half-time, whilst Alvaro Morata added a third 14 minutes from time.
Bale also scored Real's fastest ever Champions League goal in midweek against Legia Warsaw, but his fine strike there in the Polish capital was forgotten as Real blew a two-goal lead to draw 3-3.
