Real Madrid are on course to make it four wins from four in La Liga, as they have now doubled their lead against Real Sociedad at the Reale Arena.
Xabi Alonso’s side made a fast start in Donostia-San Sebastian when Kylian Mbappe set up Arda Guler to score, but the Frenchman was adjudged to have been offside in the build-up. However, he was not denied for long as he was released in behind following a terrible pass from La Real midfielder Mikel Goti, and with only Alex Remiro to beat, he made no mistake – as expected.
But just beyond the half hour mark, Real Madrid were reduced to 10 men, and it was a second dismissal in his short Los Blancos career for Dean Huijsen. The Spain international, signed from Bournemouth in the summer, was adjudged to have been the last man when he fouled Mikel Oyarzabal.
But despite the man disadvantage, Real Madrid have made it 2-0. Mbappe did wonderfully well on the left, and his cutback was turned down by Guler, who was not to be denied his goal.

It’s brilliant play from Mbappe, who has been unplayable in the opening half. Despite being down to 10, Real Madrid have continued to be the better team, and their second goal is very much deserved.
