Robert Lewandowski scored twice as Barcelona moved top of La Liga with a comfortable 3-0 victory over Elche.

The Poland international scored either side of the break to take his tally to 11 goals in eight appearances since joining Barca in the summer.

In between, Memphis Depay opened his account with a powerful effort into the roof of the net.

Visiting captain Gonzalo Verdu was sent off in the 14th minute for pulling Lewandowski down when he was through.

Barca now sit a point above Real Madrid at the top of the table.

In other results, Mollorca edged Almeria 1-0, Valencia beat Celta Vigo 3-0 and Athletico Bilbao defeated Rayo Vallecano 3-2.
