Rodrigo scored two goals and Jude Bellingham added another as Real Madrid temporarily regained the top spot in La Liga with a 3-0 victory over their host Cádiz on Sunday. Coach Carlo Ancelotti's team raised their points total to 35, one point ahead of second-placed Girona, who will host Athletic Bilbao on Monday. Atlético Madrid sits in third place with 31 points and has a game in hand, tying with Barcelona, which dropped to fourth after a 1-1 draw with Rayo Vallecano on Saturday.
After Cádiz controlled the match at the beginning, Real Madrid took the lead in the 14th minute through Rodrigo, who made a run into the penalty area and shot into the far right corner. The Brazilian winger made it 2-0 for Real Madrid in the 64th minute with another fantastic shot before providing an assist to Bellingham, who found the net ten minutes later, marking his 11th goal in the league this season.
