Gareth Bale ended a run of 802 minutes without a goal in La Liga as Real Madrid won 1-0 at bottom side Huesca on Sunday to climb back to within five points of leaders Barcelona.
The Welshman struck his first goal in the league since the start of September to lift Real to a fourth win in five matches and move the European champions up to fourth place.
"He (Bale) and the rest of the team were all fantastic. He scored a great goal and it was enough to get the win," said Real coach Santiago Solari.
"His goal and the general character of the team were crucial in taking all three points."
