"Alexander-Arnold played his part on his fourth consecutive start for Madrid after he skipped away from Nico Williams and produced a wonderful pass across the field, but after it was all about Mbappé as he controlled by the centre circle before he curled home from 20 yards. It was a sensational strike and just reward after Mbappé and Vinícius Júnior had already gone close."
"Madrid were two up by the time Alexander-Arnold limped off due to Eduardo Camavinga's 42nd-minute effort and Mbappé wrapped up the points with his 16th goal in LaLiga this term before the hour mark in Bilbao. Barcelona had extended their lead at the summit on Tuesday night with a 3-1 win over Atlético Madrid, but Real quickly set about reducing the gap and opened the scoring after only seven minutes."
Real Madrid returned to winning ways in LaLiga with a 3-0 victory at Athletic Club at San Mamés. Kylian Mbappé scored twice, opening after seven minutes with a curled strike from 20 yards and sealing the win before the hour mark for his 16th LaLiga goal. Trent Alexander-Arnold produced a fine cross and earned an early assist but exited early with a suspected thigh injury after lasting only ten minutes of the second half. Eduardo Camavinga nodded home Madrid's second from Mbappé's header. Thibaut Courtois made key saves, while Vinícius Júnior struck the woodwork and was denied by Unai Simón.
