Good results for Spain's big two in the Champions League, with Ronaldo, Kaká and Benzema all scoring as Real Madrid beat Ajax 3-0 on Tuesday, and the "MVP" trio (Messi (twice), Villa and Pedro) amongst the scorers for Barcelona in Wednesday's 0-5 victory at BATE Borisov. Valencia could only draw 1-1 at home to Chelsea though, and that thanks to a late penalty from Soldado, and Villarreal lost 2-0 at Napoli, leaving them without a point in their first two games of "the group of death". On Thursday Athletic Bilbao produced the sort of form they are lacking in the league to beat Paris Saint Germain 2-0 with goals from Gabilondo and Susaeta, and earlier in the evening a late strike from Juanfran saved a valuable point for Atlético Madrid at Rennes.

With international games coming up and no midweek club competitions, most of the European sides played on Sunday this weekend. Benzema had picked up an injury, so Higuaín took advantage of a rare start to score a hat-trick in a 0-4 victory at Espanyol. And Llorente finally got his and his club's league season under way with both goals in a 1-2 win against eternal rivals Real Sociedad (Iñigo Martínez's goal from inside his half was the best of the weekend though, Baptista's overhead winner for Málaga excepted). Rossi picked up a booking for his usual trick of stopping in the middle of his penalty run up, but he converted the kick at the second attempt. Luis García was one of the scorers though as Zaragoza saved a point in a 2-2 draw against the "Yellow Submarine". Elsewhere Raúl García scored two almost identical headers for Osasuna against Mallorca, with Hemed scoring two identical penalties either side, and Miku got his fourth of the season for Getafe, although the strike probably shouldn't have counted as the ball hit him on the arm before going in.
