Real Madrid stormed to a 4-1 win over Huesca, with Eden Hazard netting his first LaLiga goal in over a year.
The Belgium international opened the scoring before Karim Benzema struck twice, with Federico Valverde also adding his name to the scoresheet.
Real bounced back from two successive defeats with a comfortable victory against a Huesca side who remain without a win this season.

Barcelona slipped down table to 12th place, already eight points behind the league leaders, after they were held to a surprise 1-1 draw by 10-man Alaves.
Luis Rioja capitalised on a defensive mix-up to open the scoring for Alaves in the 31st minute, before Antoine Griezmann levelled less than a minute after former Birmingham and Brentford midfielder Jota had been sent off.
However, despite enjoying 80 percent of the possession and taking 25 shots, Barcelona were unable to find the winner.
