Cristiano Ronaldo and Gonzalo Higuain both scored braces as Real Madrid made it 10 goals in two games with a 4-1 win at Malaga Saturday to move top of the Spanish first division. Portuguese star Ronaldo moved to the top of the goalscoring charts on six following his double and Jose Mourinho's Real has the best attack and defense in the league lying a point ahead of Barcelona and Valencia at the summit. Real is now the only unbeaten side in the league after champion Barcelona inflicted a first league defeat of the season on Valencia coming from behind to win 2-1 at Camp Nou. Barca fell behind to a Pablo Hernandez goal on 37 minutes but turned the game around with a mesmerizing second half thanks to goals from Spanish World Cup winners Andres Iniesta and Carles Puyol. Real responded by going a point above Barcelona and Valencia following up the 6-1 thrashing of Deportivo La Coruna with a 4-1 rout of Malaga. Madrid hit the woodwork twice through Higuain and Sami Khedira before Higuain broke the deadlock on the half hour mark side-footing in a terrific cross-field ball from Ronaldo. Ronaldo then got himself on the score-sheet with Mesut Ozil putting the ball on a plate for an easy tap-in. Five minutes after the break Ozil was needlessly fouled in the penalty area and Ronaldo smashed home the resulting spot-kick for his sixth goal of the campaign. Higuain grabbed his second and fifth of the season on 65 minutes and it could have been more as Real sent a warning to AC Milan which it hosts in the Champions League Tuesday. Pato scores two In Milan, AC Milan beat Chievo Verona 3-1 to take the provisional lead in the Serie A Saturday. Milan was top with 14 points, one ahead of Lazio and three of Inter Milan. Both teams play Sunday. Also, AS Roma grabbed only its second win of the season with a 2-1 victory over Genoa thanks to goals from Marco Borriello and Matteo Brighi. At the San Siro, Alexandre Pato scored twice in partnership with Zlatan Ibrahimovic to give Milan a deserved two-goal lead at the break.
