Giovani dos Santos scored an outstanding free-kick in Villarreal's 4-2 defeat to Real Madrid at the Bernabéu on Saturday.

With just over 20 minutes remaining, Giovani ensured tension among the home fans by pulling another goal back.
The Mexican international curled a beautiful left-footed strike from 25 yards out that rocketed past Diego López and into the back of the net.
