MADRID, Aug. 19 -- Real Madrid gave new coach Julen Lopetegui a much needed win their league debut in the Liga Santander when they beat Getafe 2-0 in the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium on Sunday night.

Lopetegui left Luka Modric and new signing Thibaut Courtois on the bench, with Dani Ceballos starting in midfield and Keylor Navas continuing in goal despite conceding 4 goals in the European Supercup last week.

In front of a disappointing turnout in the Bernabeu, Gareth Bale hit the bar with a header before full back Dani Carvajal's opened the scoring with a rare header in the 20th minute.

Bale scored Madrid's second of the game in the 52nd minute after a good pass from Asensio, who was unlucky to hit the woodwork himself a few minutes later.

Although it was far from a vintage Real Madrid display, the points rarely looked in doubt against a rival whose only shot on target came in the 91st minute.

Alejandro Gallar made history for newly promoted Huesca as he scored two first half goals to give them a 2-1 win away to Eibar in their first ever match in the Spanish top-flight.

The win makes Huesca just the third side ever to win away from him in their Primera Liga debut.

Portuguese striker Andre Silva scored a hat-trick on his debut for Sevilla as they won 4-1 away to Rayo Vallecano to ruin the Madrid side's return to the Liga Santander.

Fran Vazquez opened the scoring for Sevilla, who also had former Girona coach Pablo Machin making his league debut in the dugout, and Silva then scored his three goals before Adrian Embarba scored a late penalty for Rayo.
