With some effort, Real Madrid made the connection to the top of the table of the Spanish La Liga. The Champions League record winner with international Antonio Rüdiger prevailed 3-2 (1: 2) against promoted CD Leganés thanks to the goals of Kylian Mbappé and Jude Bellingham.
The team of coach Carlo Ancelotti, at least temporarily, pulls back with the leaders FC Barcelona. However, the catalans trained by Hansi Flick can restore the old gap on Sunday.
Mbappé hits the point and with a free kick
In a lively game, Madrid quickly developed some big opportunities in Bernabéu, but for the first goal it took a penalty: Mbappé converted confidently (32nd). Within just seven minutes, the guests turned the game thanks to Diego Garcia (34th) and Dani Raba (41.).
However, the lead only lasted until shortly after the break whistle. The royal people came out of the cabin with anger in the stomach: First Bellingham made the equalization (47th), then Mbappé brought his team back to the winning road with a free kick (76.).
