Real Madrid have been underwhelming in La Liga play thus far this season, but they showed up in Tuesday’s Champions League game against Borussia Dortmund in a big way.
Gareth Bale opened the scoring in the 18th minute of the match, with a beautiful volley that he banged home with authority. He received a great ball in, just inside the top of the box, and sent a firecracker into the net, giving Madrid a 1-0 lead.

Bale has only two goals in La Liga play so far, but he’s been coming off the bench as a substitute fairly often, rather than starting like last season.
