Kylian Mbappe’s stellar performance, including two goals, propelled Real Madrid to a 4-1 comeback victory over Las Palmas, reclaiming the top spot in La Liga. With Vinicius Junior suspended, Mbappe took center stage at the Santiago Bernabeu.
Las Palmas stunned Madrid with an early goal in under 30 seconds, courtesy of Fabio Silva. However, Mbappe equalized from the penalty spot and contributed to Brahim Diaz’s goal, which gave Madrid the lead.
The French forward doubled his tally with a superb strike into the top corner, narrowly missing a hat-trick due to an offside call.
Rodrygo sealed the win in the second half, converting Fran Garcia’s assist. Despite goals from Jude Bellingham and Fede Valverde being ruled offside, Madrid maintained control.
The match also marked David Alaba’s return after a year-long injury absence. Mbappe now has 18 goals this season, becoming a crucial asset for Los Blancos in their title defense.
