Real Madrid are gradually restoring their confidence in the LaLiga with a 7-1 demolishing of Deportivo La Coruna on Sunday.

Gareth Bale, Cristiano Ronaldo and Nacho Fernandez each scored twice as Real Madrid came from behind to thrash Deportivo 7-1 at the Bernabeu.

Deportivo took the lead in the 23 minutes with Adrian Lopez’s strike but they held the advantage for just nine minutes.

The equaliser came when Nacho Fernandez turned home Marcelo’s cut-back, and the Brazilian full-back claimed another assist for Bale’s first goal.

Bale scored his second just before the hour, heading home a Toni Kroos corner.

Luka Modric scored Madrid’s fourth when he met Cristiano Ronaldo flick and drove home a powerful shot.

The fifth goal came 12 minutes from time, this time Casemiro perfectly picking out Ronaldo at the far post to tap home his first La Liga goal in 2018.

And Ronaldo had time to grab a second as he headed home Lucas Vazquez’s cross — but he took a boot in the face from Fabian Schaer and was left covered in blood.

Madrid had already made their three substitutions so had to carry on with 10 men and Nacho netted his second from close range in the 89th minute.
