Real Madrid crushes Malaga with a score of 7-0 and still hopes to reach Barcelona

Real Madrid crushes a hapless Malaga at Santiago Bernabeu with a score of 7-0 and they still hope to reach the La Liga leader, Barcelona with 7 points away from them.

France international Karim Benzema began the rout after 27 minutes when he diverted Xabi Alonso's free kick into the net.

Angel Di Maria added a second nine minutes later after capitalizing on a missed interception to slot the ball into the bottom corner.

Just before the break Marcelo slammed Di Maria's pass into the corner of the net to make it 3-0.

There was no let up after the interval as Ronaldo rounded off a flowing move to register a fourth before Benzema got his second with a header from Marcelo's cross.

Manolo handled in the area to give Real a penalty and was shown a second yellow card by the referee. Ronaldo made no mistake from the spot.

And the striker completed his hat-trick by converting Sergio Canales' cross at the near post with 13 minutes remaining before asking to be substituted.

Now, Cristiano Ronaldo scored his 27th goal in La Liga, tied with Lionel Messi.
