Celebrated by the audience at the Bernabéu Stadium on Saturday evening for his 2025 Golden Boot (thanks to his 31 goals in La Liga last season) and his second consecutive Player of the Month title, Kylian Mbappé wasted no time during the visit to Valencia. The star number 10 of Real Madrid scored his team’s first two goals during this match on the 11th day of the championship, to consolidate the Merengues’ lead at the top of the standings with 7 points ahead of Villarreal.
Mbappé first transformed a penalty given very generously by the video referee (19th). Do Real really need this to unblock the situation against relegated Valencians? The obvious answer is no. The opposing defense is so weak that a simple cross from Arda Güler escaped everyone except Mbappé, who scored his second goal of the day with a volley from the left (31st).
The captain of the Blues has already scored 13 goals in La Liga and 18 in all competitions. What should be noted is that the prodigy from Bondy has already achieved 48 goals with Real Madrid in 2025 and that is a huge record. Mbappé equals the French legend Just Fontaine, who also scored 48 goals with his club, in this case Stade de Reims, in 1958. The “Kyks” will therefore soon surpass him.
After Mbappé, the golazos of Bellingham and Carreras
The other two goals from Xabi Alonso’s team are superb. Jude Bellingham made it 3-0 just before half-time with a curling shot from the left (44th). The English midfielder returns in great form as he scored in a third game in a row, having also given an assist to Mbappé during the Clasico won last week (2-1).
10 minutes from the end, time to take out Mbappé and Vinicius at the same time (79th, to launch Endrick for his first match of the season), Alvaro Carrera sent a missile from the left corner of the area into the opposite corner (82nd). Outstanding. Real are ready to challenge Liverpool in the Champions League next Tuesday, before making a short trip to Rayo Vallecano.
