Real Madrid returned to winning ways emphatically as Jos\u00e9 Mourinho\u2019s side swept aside Rayo Vallecano 4-1 at the Santiago Bernab\u00e9u, with Kylian Mbapp\u00e9 scoring twice in another dominant home performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The victory extended Los Blancos\u2019 remarkable unbeaten home record against Rayo dating back to January 1996 and moved Madrid level on points with Barcelona, albeit having played one game more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mbapp\u00e9 Sparks Madrid\u2019s Fast Start<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Real Madrid wasted little time imposing themselves on the contest. \u00c1lvaro Carreras won an early penalty after capitalizing on Florian Lejeune\u2019s mistake, allowing Mbapp\u00e9 to convert from the spot calmly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Only three minutes later, another Rayo error proved costly. Vin\u00edcius J\u00fanior seized possession following Lejeune\u2019s wayward backpass before Madrid quickly worked the ball through Mbapp\u00e9 to Carreras, who finished clinically to make it 2-0 inside 17 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rayo goalkeeper Emil Audero, making his debut, prevented the deficit from growing immediately when he recovered from spilling Vin\u00edcius\u2019 powerful strike to deny Mbapp\u00e9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bellingham Makes It Three<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Madrid\u2019s attacking pressure eventually produced a third goal before half-time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vin\u00edcius drove at the Rayo defense before pulling the ball back for Jude Bellingham, whose controlled side-footed finish left the visitors with a mountain to climb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rayo had occasional opportunities of their own, but Madrid entered the interval firmly in control at 3-0.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rayo Fight Back After the Break<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The visitors emerged with greater purpose in the second half. Pedro D\u00edaz provided the first major warning when his fierce effort struck the post with Thibaut Courtois beaten.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rayo soon found their breakthrough after winning possession high up the pitch. The ball eventually reached Sergio Camello, whose clever toe-poked finish rolled beyond Courtois and into the far corner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The goal extended Rayo’s scoring run to 12 consecutive LaLiga matches<\/strong> and briefly gave the visitors hope of an unlikely comeback.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mbapp\u00e9 Seals 4-1 Victory<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As Rayo committed more players forward, spaces inevitably opened for Madrid to exploit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mbapp\u00e9 delivered the decisive punishment late on, finishing a rapid counter-attack with precision to complete his brace and seal a comprehensive 4-1 Real Madrid victory<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It marked Mbapp\u00e9\u2019s 14th LaLiga brace for Real Madrid<\/strong>, further underlining his importance to Mourinho\u2019s attack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bernab\u00e9u Remains a Fortress<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Real Madrid have now lost only twice at home in LaLiga since the beginning of last season, posting an impressive W19, D1<\/strong> record across the remaining fixtures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Their dominance against Rayo at the Bernab\u00e9u is even more striking. Madrid remains unbeaten in this home H2H since January 1996, recording 16 wins and two draws<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rayo’s away problems, meanwhile, continue. Los Franjirrojos have won only two of their last 16 LaLiga away matches, with four draws and ten defeats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What the Result Means<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For Real Madrid, this was precisely the response required after their previous league setback. Four goals, an Mbapp\u00e9 brace and another commanding Bernab\u00e9u performance keep Los Blancos firmly involved in the early LaLiga title battle alongside Barcelona.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rayo showed courage after the break, but their defensive errors and Madrid’s ruthless finishing ultimately proved too costly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Real Madrid’s message at the Bernab\u00e9u was clear: after a setback, they can respond with authority. With Mbapp\u00e9 firing and their formidable home record intact, Los Blancos remain firmly in the hunt for LaLiga supremacy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
