Karim Benzema and Gareth Bale continued their fine goal-scoring starts to the season by leading Real Madrid to a comfortable 4-1 win over Leganes on Saturday.
Welsh forward Bale scored the opener in the 17th minute, and while Leganes levelled through a Guido Carrillo penalty seven minutes later, Madrid seized control after Benzema's second half double and a Ramos spot-kick.
