Beginning with Football news and Spanish La Liga action where Gareth Bale has silenced his critics as he scored both goals in Real Madrid's 2-0 win over Levante to end their 3 match winless run.
Real’s struggling attacking force were all involved in the opening goal of the Sunday match. Karim Benzema crossed from the right. Cristiano Ronaldo had an acrobatic attempt cleared off the line only for Bale to volley the ball into the net to end his 9 game goal drought.
5 minutes before halftime the lead was doubled as Ronaldo drove Dani Carvajal's cutback pass towards the goal but Bale somehow deflected the ball into the net to make it 2 to his name.
The result means Real head into next weekend's EL Clasico showdown at Camp Nou just a single point behind their rivals Barcelona at the top of the table.
