Robinho put Real ahead early in the first-half before substitute Raul Bravo sealed the victory with a last-gasp strike.

The victory moved Real up to second spot on 45 points, seven ahead of leaders and holders Barcelona who travel to Valencia on Sunday.

Robinho snatched the opener as early as the fifth minute when he raced on to a deft through pass from Zinedine Zidane to fire a low shot home.

Bravo doubled the lead in the 90th minute with an easy tap-in after connecting with a neat pass from Robinho.

Real Madrid suffered a mid-week humiliation when they lost to Zaragoza 6-1 in the first-leg of King's Cup.
