Real Madrid 2-1 Rayo Vallecano: Mbappe penalty in 100th minute hands hosts victory but Bellingham suffers injury
"Real Madrid dramatically stayed within a point of Barcelona at the top of LaLiga after Kylian Mbappe scored in the 10th minute of stoppage time to secure a 2-1 win over Rayo Vallecano. Vinicius Junior's stunning opener was cancelled out by Jorge de Frutos early in the second half and looked likely to drop points at home even after the visitors were reduced to 10 men."
"But with 100 minutes on the clock, Nobel Mendy's foul of Brahim Diaz handed the hosts the chance to secure the win, with Mbappe stepping up and scoring. The victory was Real's sixth consecutive league victory and keeps them just a point behind Barca. A sour note to the victory was an injury to Jude Bellingham, who left the field in tears sparking concerns over his fitness for the rest of the season and England's World Cup campaign."
"Vinicius opened the scoring for Real with his first goal since October. The Brazilian raced clear down the left before twisting and turning inside before firing a brilliant strike into the top corner. Despite going in at half-time ahead, they were greeted with jeers at the Bernabeu with fans frustrated with a lack of chances created against a side just a place above the relegation zone."

Jorge de Frutos equalised early in the second half after a strong Rayo team move. Rayo were reduced to 10 men following a stamp by Pape Ciss, and Edouardo Camavinga struck the post during Real's late push. The victory was Real's sixth consecutive league win. Jude Bellingham left the field injured and in tears, raising fitness concerns.
