Real Madrid found solace in the Champions League once more as they secured a 2-0 win at Roma to confirm top spot in Group G.

The Los Blancos continued their fine form under Santiago Solari in the Champions League with a victory over the  Giallorossi at the Stadio Olimpico.

The three-time reigning champions took a 47th-minute lead through Gareth Bale, who capitalised on Federico Fazio's mistake.
