Hello and welcome to our live coverage of Real Madrid's clash with Celta Vigo from the Bernabeu.

I'm Pete Hall, and I will be bringing you the action, as it happens, live!

What an incredible game. Celta really were unlucky to go in at half-time behind, but they were blown away by Ronaldo and co after the break. The Portuguese helped himself to a 14 minute hat-trick, before heading another, Jese got in on act and Gareth Bale completed the scoring. Nine points the gap at the top now, but that will do Real's confidence a world of good. Thanks for joining us. Full report and reaction to follow on site. Goodbye.
