Kylian Mbappé ended his goal drought with a thunderous strike and midfielder Jude Bellingham scored a header as Real Madrid thrashed Leganés 3-0 on Sunday.
Leganes’ solid defence kept Madrid at bay in the first half, but the visitors took the lead three minutes before the break when Vinicius Junior combined with Mbappé, who netted his seventh league goal this season.
Madrid enjoyed most of the possession in the second half and Uruguayan midfielder Federico Valverde scored from a free kick after Bellingham had been fouled at the 66th minute.
The England international secured the victory with a header five minutes from time.
With a game in hand, Madrid are second in the standings on 30 points, four behind Barcelona, who drew 2-2 with Celta Vigo on Saturday.
