    Phew, time for a breather. What a night. Goals, goals and more goals.

    Barcelona thrash Osasuna (and help relegate them in the process) to move three points clear, Madrid peg back them back with a tanking of their own.

    And Paris St-Germain and Borussia Dortmund both beat their biggest rivals to book places in domestic cup finals.

    Told you it would be fun. Thanks for your company!

    So the maths are simple: Madrid will win the title if they win their remaining five matches.

    The football is not likely to be as simple.

    An away derby for Barcelona, while Sevilla and Celta Vigo won't roll over for Madrid.

    Deportivo La Coruna 2-6 Real Madrid

    Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane made nine changes from the side which lost El Clasico on Sunday, but his decision - made with more than half an eye on next week's Champions League semi-final against Atletico - has been fully vindicated.

    Madrid move back level on 78 points with Barca, who lead because of their superior head-to-head record.

    The Madrid kids do alright.

    Three more minutes of punishment for Depor.

  9. DISALLOWED GOALpublished at 89 mins

    Deportivo La Coruna 2-6 Real Madrid

    Madrid stick the ball into the net AGAIN, walking it in through young sub Mariano Diaz. But he was allowed to walk it in because the offside flag was already up. Wrongly, as it turns out.

    That's a goal at an average of roughly every six minutes in our two La Liga games.

    Is it a double goal-bonus week?

    Madrid add a late sixthpublished at 86 mins

    Deportivo La Coruna 2-6 Real Madrid

    Eight goals in the Barca game, eight goals in the Madrid game.

    Los Merengues add a sixth with Casemiro's long-range shot almost apologetically flying past the Deportivo keeper.

    Deportivo La Coruna 2-5 Real Madrid

    We jest. Deportivo are already buried. But Stoke legend* Joselu narrows the gap with a firm downward header from a clipped left-wing cross.

    * OK, legend is stretching it

    Deportivo La Coruna 1-5 Real Madrid

    And that is virtually Isco's final involvement. He is given a well-earned breather, as is Marco Asensio, to a warm round of applause from the travelling Madridistas.

    Isco also receives a hug from Zinedine Zidane. Now that has got to be one of the highest accolades you could ever receive...

    Five alive for Madridpublished at 77 mins

    Deportivo La Coruna 1-5 Real Madrid

    Isco is starting to look like the player we thought he would be a couple of years ago. And he caps a superb performance with a superb finish. A deflected cross from the right falls invitingly into his path after he busts a gut to support his team-mates. And the ball sits up nicely for the Spain international to ping in a crisp half-volley.
