Roma captain Francesco Totti set a new Serie A scoring record on Saturday as his side demolished Cesena 5-1 . Two early goals from the 35-year-old striker saw him reach a total of 211 goals for Roma , which means he has scored more goals for one club than any other player in Serie A history . His tally sees him surpass the previous record of 210 set by the prolific Swedish striker Gunnar Nordahl who played for AC Milan in the 1950s . `` It 's what I 've always wanted , to wear this shirt and beat one record after another , '' said Totti , AFP reported . `` I 've overtaken Nordahl and I 'm proud of that . Now I 'm aiming for Altafini , '' he added , AFP reported . Brazilian Jose Altafini is the joint third highest scorer ( along with Giuseppe Meazza ) in Serie A history with 216 goals . Totti 's early brace and a goal from Fabio Borini put Roma 3-0 up with only eight minutes played . Juan and Miralem Pjanic added further goals in the second half after CM Eder had pulled a goal back for Cesena on the hour mark . The win lifts Roma to sixth -- although Napoli will overtake them again if they win at Siena on Sunday -- and boosts their chances of qualifying for European football next season . Cesena , however , remain mired in trouble hovering just above the foot of the table in 18th place with 15 points . Juventus ' 2-0 win over Atalanta sees them maintain their advantage at the top of Serie A over their nearest rivals AC Milan ( who play Novara on Sunday ) and Udinese ( who host Catania ) . Stephan Lichtsteiner opened the scoring after 55 minutes before substitute Emanuele Giaccherini made sure of the three points nine minutes from the final whistle . Meanwhile in La Liga , Espanyol moved up to fifth place with a 3-0 win over struggling Granada on Saturday . Jose Baena headed home their first goal from a set piece in the 26th minute before Joan Verdu doubled the lead from the penalty spot moments before halftime . The home side did n't kill off a spirited Granada until ten minutes from time when Portuguese substitute Rui Fonte scored from close range to seal the three points . Getafe enjoyed a 2-1 away to Racing Santander with goals from Jaime Gavilan ( 26th minute ) and Nicolas Miku ( 83rd minute ) after Christian Stuani had given the home side the lead in the 14th minute . Atletico Madrid 's long wait for an away win in the league is over after an emphatic 4-0 win at Real Sociedad . Radamel Falcao scored a hat-trick with Adrian netting Atletico 's other goal . The Seville derby between Real Betis and Sevilla ended with honors even . A superb free kick from Benat gave the home side the lead in 26th minute , but Alvaro Negredo leveled the scores before half-time with a header . Sevilla had to play the final quarter of the match with 10-men after defender Federico Fazio was sent off , but clung on for the draw . In Sunday 's fixtures , Barcelona travel to Malaga while Real Madrid host Athletic Bilbao . Third-place Valencia are away to Osasuna . Fourth-place Levante take on bottom-of-the-table Real Zaragoza .
