Sporting Gijon's trip to the Santiago Bernabeu on Sunday has been miserable.
The Spanish minnows saw its encounter with Real Madrid get out of hand quickly, as Los Blancos grabbed a 4-0 lead before the 20-minute mark.
One of those first four goals featured a beautiful overhead kick from Karim Benzema, who got on the end of Gareth Bale's cross and thumped his acrobatic shot beyond Gijon 'keeper Ivan Cuellar to give Madrid a 3-0 advantage.
Madrid would add yet another goal before the interval to make it 5-0 at halftime.
