Over the summer, Real Madrid acquired James Rodriguez for an astounding $108 million price tag. After scoring six goals in a memorable 2014 World Cup, the 23-year-old could've turned into something special for years to come or just a flash in the pan. While the jury is still out, today, James looked awfully promising, especially after sending an absolutely screamer to the top corner to help propel Los Blancos to a 2-0 lead.
Thanks to a hat trick by Cristiano Ronaldo and two goals from Gareth Bale, Real Madrid went on to defeat Deportivo La Coruña, 8-2.
