José Mourinho has revealed that he is very happy that Kaka is back from injury. Even Mourinho conceded: "There was only one colour in the first half and that was yellow [Villareal]. But the second half was completely white."
The difference was Kaka. After five months out with injury, the Brazilian ace guided the white-shirted Real Madrid to victory. He set up Ronaldo's third goal 11 minutes from time, then scored himself with just three minutes to go for his first goal of the season.
Ronaldo now has 22 goals to his name, four more than Barca's Lionel Messi.
Kaka may well have a new team-mate in January, with Jose looking for a new striker, and Dimitar Berbatov and Samir Nasri linked.
