Harry Kane and Son Heung Min scored two each while Erik Lamela added a fifth for the home side.

Real Madrid also won their first European match this season to ease the pressure on under-fire boss Zinedine Zidane. 

The Spanish giants however, were made to work hard - recording a 1-0 win over Galatasaray in Istanbul.
