Real Madrid will head to Paris for their pivotal second leg clash with some much needed confidence, after ultimately overcoming their local rivals Getafe at a somewhat bare Santiago Bernabeu. Yet again, it was Ronaldo who was the difference, as he netted his 300th and 301st La Liga goals to secure all three points.
All the build up before the game was dominated by Zidane's team selection ahead of the UEFA Champions League tie, and the Frenchman chose a reasonably strong side, notably handing Gareth Bale a chance to reassure him of his importance to the side.
Real started slowly, with any promising build up play eventually smothered by a Getafe defence boasting the third best record in La Liga, and have four clean sheets in their last five games.
