Real Madrid are No. 1

Real Madrid's ruthless week of goals and glory makes them our new No. 1 in Shaka Hislop's Power Rankings, with Sevilla leaping up to second place.

It's been a good week for Zinedine Zidane's side. After four consecutive draws from Sept. 21 to Oct. 2, Los Blancos have racked up four straight wins. In the past seven days, Cristiano Ronaldo & Co. notched a 2-1 home win vs. the always difficult Athletic Bilbao before putting SEVEN goals past Cultural Leonesa in the Copa del Rey. Marco Asensio continued his torrid form, scoring twice in the midweek cup win.
