Real Madrid were too good for Girona in this La Liga title clash at the Santiago Bernabeu. With an hour played in the Spanish capital, the hosts are now 4-0 up.
Vinicius Junior opened the scoring for Los Blancos, first set up Jude Bellingham for a 2-0 lead in the first half. The Brazilian was instrumental again as Bellingham made it 3-0 early in the second period, and now it is Rodrygo Goes who found the back of the net, punishing an error Yan Couto.
Will Vinicius rob Yan Couto once again for the assist and Rodrygo score just in time for the UCL? Yes, he's back. pic.twitter.com/BcyRwTbLmK

This is a great goal for Rodrygo, who has been in pretty poor form in recent weeks. That should give a lot of confidence, which is good news for Real Madrid ahead of a crucial series of games in La Liga and the Champions League.
Gerona will want this match over very quickly as they look to move on and put this behind them.
