Benzema the hat-trick hero, Guedes at the double and Boufal brilliance – LaLiga’s Champion Moments

Real Madrid’s Karim Benzema bagged a hat-trick against Athletic Bilbao in what Zinedine Zidane dubbed their best performance since his return to the Bernabeu.

The French striker has scored Real’s last eight goals, beating the club record of six set by Fernando Morientes in 1999. Real remain third, four points behind city rivals Atletico and 10 points ahead of Getafe in fourth.

Elsewhere, Gonçalo Guedes scored a brilliant brace for Valencia against Real Betis. The Portuguese winger fired two long-range efforts past Betis goalkeeper Neto as Los Ches maintain their challenge for a Champions League spot.

And Soufiane Boufal netted a superb winner for Celta Vigo against relegation rivals Girona.

The home side took the lead through Iago Aspas - assisted by Boufal - before Portu’s composed equaliser just after half-time.

Boufal took matters into his own hands, driving at the defenders before using them to curl an effort around. The win moves them out of the relegation zone with five left to play.
