Cristiano Ronaldo scored two late goals as Real Madrid - who had Gareth Bale sent off - came from 3-1 down to draw with Las Palmas at the Bernabeu stadium.

Real Madrid playmaker Isco gave Real an eighth-minute lead before Tana levelled with a firm shot.

Bale was shown an early red card in the second half for shoving Jonathan Viera, who scored a penalty after a Sergio Ramos handball.

Kevin-Prince Boateng fired in moments later before Ronaldo's penalty and header earned Real a point.

Real Madrid's comeback was not enough to send them back to the top of La Liga. They now trail Barcelona by one point, although they have a game in hand on the champions.
