Madrid took an early lead with their first attack of the match, when VinĂ­cius JĂșnior pounced on a loose ball and raced through on goal before coolly finishing past the goalkeeper.

But their lead lasted just three minutes, with Ante Budimir soon equalising for Osasuna from close range after Jorge Herrando picked him out with a cross.

Los Blancos then went back in front in superb fashion, when Federico Valverde’s clever cut-back from the left byline was finished by Dani Carvajal with the outside of his boot.

The league leaders’ dominated after the break, and got a third goal just after the hour mark, when Valverde found Brahim Díaz with a defence-splitting pass, and the Moroccan international finished calmly.

And a couple of minutes later it was 4-1. Valverde was again the provider, this time with his chest, and VinĂ­cius netted his second of the afternoon with a super finish from a tight angle.

Iker Muñoz did pull a goal back for Osasuna when he fired through Andriy Lunin’s legs late on, but the points belonged to Madrid.

Substitute Arda GĂŒler almost added a fifth goal in the 93rd minute when he tried to lob the goalkeeper from just inside Osasuna’s half, but the Turkish youngster’s effort agonisingly rattled the crossbar.

Girona will have the chance to cut Madrid’s lead back to seven points when they take on Getafe later on Saturday.
