Real Madrid crushed Real Valladolid, 7-0, with a stunning first-half blitz on Sunday to open up an eight-point lead at the top of the Primera Liga standings.

The champions scored five unanswered goals in a clinical opening 45 minutes before adding two more after the break to move further clear of Barcelona, who could only draw 1-1 at Sevilla on Saturday.

Julio Baptista set the ball rolling with Real's opener in the eighth minute, before further strikes from Raul (two), Arjen Robben and Guti ensured the game was over as a contest before the half-time break.

Guti and Royston Drenthe then added further goals in the second half to complete the romp.


Real Madrid: Iker Casillas; Míchel Salgado, Sergio Ramos (Diarra 57'), Cannavaro, Marcelo; Gago (Soldado 74'), Guti, Baptista; Robinho (Drenthe 15'), Robben, Raúl.

Real Valladolid: Asenjo; Pedro López, Rafa, García Calvo, Marcos; Álvaro Rubio, Vivar Dorado, Sisi (Sesma 72'), Capdevila (Oscar Sánchez 58'); Víctor (Borja 46'), Llorente.
