The Colombian scored an emphatic double in addition to efforts from Gareth Bale and Karim Benzema at the Santiago Bernabeu
James Rodriguez scored two spectacular strikes to help fire Real Madrid to a 5-0 thrashing of Real Betis at the Santiago Bernabeu on Saturday.
Gareth Bale opened the scoring two minutes into the second La Liga match of the season for Rafa Benitez's men, quickly binning any lingering possibility of being booed by the home crowd.
Colombian attacking midfielder James doubled the lead with an incredibly acute, driven free kick before Karim Benzema headed home a fantastically worked team goal for Madrid, who had drawn their opener 0-0 at Sporting Gijon.
James added a fourth with an improvised bicycle kick inside Betis' box, Keylor Navas saved a penalty and Bale scored his second late in the game to see the Blancos into the two-week international break on an emphatic high. [GOAL]
