Mbappe and Bellingham helped Real beat Leganes
Real Madrid secured their second consecutive win in La Liga by defeating Leganes in an away match.
The visitors dominated the first half, but were only able to open the scoring before the break. A mistake in the Leganes defence led to Vinicius ending one-on-one with the goalkeeper, but instead of a shot on goal he passed to Kylian Mbappe and the Frenchman calmly sent the ball into the net.
After 66 minutes Madrid scored their second goal thanks to Federico Valverde. The captain of Madrid made a direct hit from the standard, sending the ball into the bottom right corner.
In the very end of the match Jude Bellingham shot on an empty goal after a ricochet from the crossbar and set the final score - 3:0 in favour of Real.
Thanks to this victory, Madrid again overtook Atletico in the standings.
