Real Madrid defeated Getafe 3-0 at the Estadio La Coruna on Saturday evening, securing their third consecutive win and maintaining their position as one of the top teams in La Liga.

The match was a dominant display by Real Madrid, with Bale scoring twice to help his side secure victory. The Welsh winger played a key role in the first goal, providing a brilliant pass to Karim Benzema who scored from close range. In the second half, Bale added another for Real Madrid when he headed home a cross from Vinicius Junior.

Getafe struggled to create any meaningful chances against Real Madrid's formidable defense, which was led by captain Sergio Ramos. Despite their best efforts, they were unable to find the back of the net, leaving them frustrated and disappointed after yet another defeat.

Real Madrid manager Zinedine Zidane praised his team's performance, saying that it was a great way to start the new year. "We started well and we were very dangerous throughout the game," he said. "It was a great performance from all of us and I'm proud of the result."

Overall, this is just the latest example of Real Madrid's dominance in La Liga. They have already won three out of four games this season, and it looks like they will continue to be one of the top teams in the league. With Bale's form and the quality of their players, there is no reason why they cannot challenge for the title once again this season.
