Watch: Real Madrid 2-0 Getafe | All Goals

2-0! Ferland Mendy turns it home, and in the space of five minutes Real Madrid have as good as made sure of the points.

The defender brings the ball out from the back before slipping it wide to Marcelo and continuing his run into the box. Marcelo crosses low towards the near post, where a stretching Mendy gets a toe to the ball to direct it past Soria and into the far corner!

And having failed to capitalise on their best attack so far, Getafe are punished for their profligacy right away! Benzema scores for Real Madrid!

Nacho plays it to the right to Vinicius, who digs out a cross right onto the head of Benzema, and the Frenchman nods in past Soria!

Again Real Madrid go close! This is probably their best chance yet. Marcelo slides the ball across the top of the box for Modric, who’s arriving at pace and, after taking a touch, shoots low towards Soria’s bottom corner. Soria keeps it out with his feet, though. The way things are going, it’s surely only a matter of time before Madrid score.

Getafe simply cannot keep hold of the ball for more than about 10 seconds, and Real Madrid win it back before setting off once more towards the visitors’ box. Benzema and Modric aren’t on the same page, though, and the chance is lost when the former tries to release the latter in behind the Getafe backline, only to see he hadn’t continued his run into the box.
