Real Madrid vs. Real Valladolid: La Liga Live Score, Highlights and Recap

Real Madrid won a seven goal thriller at the Bernabeu to further enhance their grip on second place in La Liga.

It was Real Valladolid who took the lead in the first half, Oscar Gonzalez capitalizing on a sloppy pass from Angel Di Maria.
