Welcome back, Gareth Bale.

The Real Madrid superstar, who has been sidelined since April 18 with a calf injury, returned to the pitch for the first time in Saturday's match against Sevilla and promptly made an immediate impact.

After coming on as a substitute for the ineffectual Chicharito in the 66th minute, the Welshman needed just 120 seconds to set up Cristiano Ronaldo for his third goal of the contest.

GOLAZOOOO! CRIS!! 1-3.

As for the goalscorer, well, in something that is becoming all too common every time he finds the net, Ronaldo's tally helped him reach some impressive milestones – for both his club and his league.

Ronaldo scores and breaks records in the process. Rinse and repeat.
