Real Madrid 4-1 Atletico Madrid
After the visitors controlled the early stages of the contest, the home side managed to responded well to secure the three points, extending their lead at the top of the table to six for the time being, as Barcelona play later on.
The rivalry got off to a cracking start just 15 minutes in when Adrian Lopez worked a quick combination on the right side before being sent into the box by Diego, where the young Spaniard punished Iker Casillas with a simply finish at the front post, bagging his fifth league goal of the season.
As the home fans were silenced, it would only be temporary. With the visitors in control, it did not take long for the Spanish giants to respond. Six minutes later, Di Maria filtered a soft pass into the box, ultimately finding Karim Benzema, and the former Lyon man took a touch by Thibaut Courtois, who brought him down with his outstretched arms as a penalty kick was awarded in addition to the obligatory red card to the on-loan custodian.
Sergio Asenjo came on to replace the starting goalkeeper as Diego was sacrificed. Ronaldo took the kick for Real Madrid, faking out the substitute goalkeeper and finishing inside the left post to bring things level.
Di Maria put his side up three minutes into the second half after Ronaldo darted down the left side into the box to draw out Asenjo, sending in a low ball that found the quick Argentine alone in the middle of the area, and he finished well into the top of the net with the open goal.
In complete control, the home side extended its advantage in the 65th minute after Higuain chased down a ball that Diego Godin failed to clear, pouncing on it in the box before making a move past the goalkeeper, finishing into the open net.
Then, a foul by Godin inside the box with just under 10 minutes to go resulted in another penalty kick that Ronaldo would not miss, finishing comfortably into the left side, as Godin was sent off.
The home side had a few more chances as the game reached its end and was able to control the Atletico attack to ensure the points for Jose Mourinho's team.
With the victory, Real Madrid now has 34 points and remains in first place in the top flight, while Atletico Madrid sits midtable with 16.

Real Madrid 6-3 Dinamo Zagreb
The hosts made the best start possible and were on the scoresheet in the first minute of the match. Ozil found space on the byline and cut a pass into the box for Benzema to take a touch and coolly slot the ball into the bottom right corner to score the fastest goal in history for Madrid in the Champions League.
Jose Mourinho's side doubled its lead within five minutes. A fantastic crossfield pass from Ozil found the head of Jose Callejon, who leapt well to flicked the ball on to Benzema. The Frenchman then quickly turned and returned the pass to his teammate who emphatically drove the ball into the left corner.
Things got from bad to worse for Zagreb just three minutes later. Lassana Diarra played a ball into space for Higuain down the right-hand side of the box. The Argentine then drove forward before cleverly turning inside and delightfully flicking the ball over the oncoming goalkeeper Ivan Kelava with his weaker foot.
Germany international Ozil then made it 4-0 to the home side in the 20th minute. Higuain showed impressive strength to fend off challenges coming in from the right wing before lashing a shot at goal with his left foot. Kelava managed to make the save but Ozil retrieved the rebound and passed the ball into the open goal.
Real Madrid started the second half the exact same way it started the first and damaged the spirit of Zagreb with an early goal, and it could not have been in more simple fashion. Raphael Varane clipped the ball over the Zagreb defense from his own half and Callejon took the ball down before driving forward and passing the ball into the right corner.
The locals made it 6-0 in the 66th minute courtesy of an excellent spot of link-up play on the outside of the Zagreb box. Benzema played a pass into the feet of Higuain and the Argentine flicked the ball back into the path of his teammate who went through on goal and slotted the ball nicely into the corner.
However, Zagreb rallied in the last ten minutes and was able to grab two consolation goals. Fatos Beqiraj popped up in the 81st minute to score an excellent header at the near post after latching on to a well placed cross by Luis Ibanez. The Croatian side also scored in the dying minutes of the game after Milan Badelj took advantage of some miscommunication in the Madrid ranks to slide a cross to the back post for Ivan Tomacek to smuggle over the line.
Real Madrid retains top spot in Group D after notching up 15 points from five matches and will progress as winners of the group. Dinamo Zagreb finds itself bottom of the group with five losses out of five games.

REMINDER: Real Madrid V Dynamo Zagreb 20:45h
Real Madrid 3-2 Valencia
A goal of real class midway through the first half from Karim Benzema gave Madrid the lead, with further goals from Sergio Ramos and Cristiano Ronaldo sealing the win despite Roberto Soldado scoring a second half brace for the home team.
The game started at a frenetic pace with both sides looking to push forward whenever possible. Valencia had its first shot within the very first minute while Real Madrid nearly took the lead on 10 minutes when Karim Benzema flashed a well struck shot wide from the edge of the area.
The French international made no mistake with his next chance, controlling a quick free kick from Xabi Alonso brilliantly with his left foot before rifling a fantastic volley into the back of the net from 18 yards to give his side the lead.
Madrid was beginning to enjoy itself as the half wore on, Sami Khedira having an explosive shot chalked off for offside, and Ronaldo meanwhile was at his effervescent best, indulging in a series of keepie-ups while running with the ball in the middle of the pitch.
However, it wasn't all going Mourinho's side's way, former Real Madrid academy player Dani Parejo going close, before Valencia had a penalty appeal turned down by the referee José Antonio Teixeira Vitienes.
Ronaldo nearly made it 2-0 just before halftime, racing through on goal only to see his effort pushed away well by Diego Alves.
Valencia went close to equalizing shortly after the break, Jeremy Mathieu sliding a tantalizing ball across Casillas' six yard box with Roberto Soldado inches away from diverting the ball into the net.
Madrid began to lose their discipline as Valencia looked to being edging their way back into the game, Ronaldo, Marcelo and Mesut Ozil all finding their way into the referee's book in quick succession.
Despite the ill-discipline, it was Madrid that got the next goal of the game, Sergio Ramos heading home from an inviting Mesut Ozil corner. The goal appeared to give Madrid the breathing space it needed to see out the rest of the game.
Valencia, however, had other ideas. Soldado rifled home a volley through a crowded penalty area to make it 2-1 after Pablo Hernandez's shot appeared to have been pushed away to safety.
Ronaldo soon restored Madrid's two goal lead with a fine finish from an acute angle after Diego Alves had wrongly rushed from his line to meet the attacker.
The end-to-end nature of the game was far from over however. Soldado again got in on the act, the in-form forward grabbing his second of the game after superb buildup play from Pablo on the wing.
The game ended in controversy as Valencia's players surrounded the referee after Ronaldo had appeared to block a last-minute goal-bound effort with his arm.
An eleventh win in a row maintains Madrid's three point lead over Barcelona at the top of the table. Valencia, meanwhile, is now seven points off the pace in La Liga, but can take pride from the manner of its second half performance.

Kaka: "I was sure I would perform at a high level again"
Kaka is returning to his best form this season, proven by his excellent performances in Real Madrid's latest games. Only an injury on his soleus muscle has prevented his return to the Brazilian national team. The player is nevertheless satisfied with how things have turned out for him.
"I had disheartening days because I trained and worked hard but still didn't know what was wrong with me. I was nevertheless sure I would perform at a high level again and I want to be a star player. I don't know if I'll be the player I was at Milan, but I want to be an important footballer and help my team. That's my motivation."
"There were times I seemed to be a robot by moving mechanically around the pitch. I wasn't happy and I felt pain after doing stretching exercises. I didn't know what would happen to me, but I never thought about stopping. I cried many times alone and with my family."
"I'm now performing well. I spoke to the coach and he said he wanted me here. Then, President Perez explained they had no need to sell and said I should be patient and remain calm. I was relaxed after coming out of that meeting. It is a chellenge to remain here and it motivates me."
"Choosing the best player in the world is relative because it depends on what you do collectively, but I'd say Cristiano Ronaldo is the most all-round player in modern football. He scores with both his feet, from headers and from free-kicks."
"Ricardo Carvalho is my best friend at Real Madrid. He's the one I most speak with."
