Santi Mina brought Celta level, but James Rodriguez's deflected effort put Madrid in front once more before the break and Hernandez rounded off the scoring in style 22 minutes from time. "It was the kind of game we like," said Real boss Carlo Ancelotti. "To play on the front foot and take risks as did Celta. That made for a spectacular and very open game.
