Cristiano Ronaldo scored twice as Real Madrid returned to winning ways in La Liga by beating 10-man Getafe.
Zinedine Zidane's side suffered a shock defeat by Espanyol earlier on Tuesday, but Gareth Bale stroked in the opener in Saturday's clash against Getafe.
Ronaldo's first, a low, drilled finish, was his 300th La Liga goal, before heading in his second on 78 minutes, according to a BBC report.
Loic Remy was dismissed for two bookable offences for Getafe, with Francisco Portillo netting a penalty.
The spot-kick was awarded for Nacho's foul in the box on Jorge Molina, although it looked like a clean challenge from the Real Madrid defender.
The result leaves champions Real in third place, closing the gap on Barcelona to 12 points.
The unbeaten leaders face second-placed Atletico Madrid in a crucial match on Sunday (kick-off 15:15 GMT).
Champions League holders Real travel to face Paris St-Germain in the last 16 on Tuesday, leading 3-1 from the first-leg.
