Cristiano Ronaldo scored twice on his return from suspension as Real Madrid won 3-0 at Xerez to put pressure on La Liga leaders Barcelona.

Ronaldo then marked his return from suspension by adding a second in the 69th minute when heading home from Kaka's cross after the Brazilian had got to the byline.
