Real Madrid Suffers but Defeats Alavés with the Help of Mbappé and Rodrygo
In the seventh round of LaLiga, Real Madrid defeated Alavés 3-2 with a great performance from Kylian Mbappé, Rodrygo Goes, and Jude Bellingham, putting them just one point behind Barcelona in a match where they suffered more than expected due to the visitors' tenacity.
Real Madrid showcased their strength against Alavés in a match they dominated from the first minute, thanks to an early goal from Lucas Vázquez, who scored in the first minute with an excellent assist from Vinícius. Later, Mbappé netted the second goal of the night in the 40th minute with an extraordinary play between the English player and the Frenchman, thus sealing the advantage at halftime.
In the second half, the dynamic remained the same. Madrid's lead was considerable, which they consolidated with a superb goal from Rodrygo in the 48th minute, affirming their victory. However, Alavés never gave up and surprised Real Madrid, first with a goal from Carlos Benavidez in the 85th minute, and just a minute later, Kike García scored the second goal, giving the Madrid club a major scare.

An in-form Mbappé and Jude Bellingham, freshly recovered, gifted us this STUNNER:
The play began with a wall pass between Mbappé and Bellingham, allowing the Frenchman to attack the space with his characteristic speed. With his change of pace and a finish befitting a star, Mbappé reached 5 goals while wearing white in LaLiga.
