MADRID, Spain -- Real Madrids attack brought one Rayo Vallecano player to tears before its defence nearly spoiled another tremendous performance from Cristiano Ronaldo in a 3-2 win on Saturday. Madrids victory kept it six points behind Spanish leader Barcelona, but only just as it nearly blew a three-goal lead during a frantic finish set off after it surrendered a pair of second-half penalties. Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti will have no conundrum about selecting his attack for Tuesdays Champions League match at Juventus as Ronaldo, Gareth Bale, and Karim Benzema once again showed Madrids potency up front. Rayo defender Anaitz Arbilla was in tears after being substituted in the 51st minute, moments before Jonathan Viera scored a pair of spot kicks to turn the game with Madrid on the verge of conceding an equalizer at Vallecas Stadium right to the final whistle. Coach Carlo Ancelotti called Madrids second half defensive performance "disastrous." "To think that the game is over when youre winning 3-0 is a grave error," Ancelotti said. "Its happened twice now, and I am sure it will not happen for a third time." Madrids attack picked up from Wednesdays 7-3 win over Sevilla as Luka Modric sent Ronaldo racing down the left and skipping past his marker to move clear into the area and fire the third-minute opener past goalkeeper Ruben Martinez. Bale picked out Benzema inside the area with a cross from the right to head home in the 31st for 2-0. The winger showed cleverness when he flicked a ball over Arbilla to get free along the goal-line and he picked out Ronaldo streaking into the area to fire into the top of goal in the 48th. Madrid was dominating the bottom table club until Pepe kicked out at Viera -- whose inopportune touch earlier waived off a Iago Falque goal because of offside -- and Marcelo flew into Alberto Bueno to set up Vieras goals in the 53rd and 55th. "Whats happened to us in these last two games is not just down to coincidence," Ancelotti said. "Weve got to change our attitude and rid ourselves of this air of superiority we have on the field." Diego Lopez certainly earned his reported salary boost as the Madrid goalkeeper got a tip to Buenos smash for it to find the post, and he recovered to save from Lass Bangoura as his 65th-minute shot ricocheted through the area on goal. Substitute Adrian Gonzalez nearly scored on his first touch, just rolling wide, as the hosts came close while goalkeeper Ruben Martinez denied Ronaldo late at the other end. Barcelona leads Atletico Madrid by four points, and Madrid by six. Atletico plays Athletic Bilbao on Sunday. Earlier, Real Sociedad crushed 10-man Osasuna 5-0 ahead of its must-win Champions League game against Manchester United. Sociedad dominated the visitors at its Anoeta Stadium with Ion Ansotegi, Inigo Martinez, and Antoine Griezmann all scoring through headers from set pieces, with the last coming after Osasuna defender Jordan Loties was shown a red card. Haris Seferovic released Chori Castro to score in the 81st minute before capping the rout himself by scoring Sociedads fifth with two minutes to play.
