Mbappe scores, Real Madrid win to relieve pressure.

Kylian Mbappe and Rodrygo both scored at the right time, helping Real Madrid overcome Alaves in a hard-fought match to keep their hopes alive of catching up with Barcelona in the La Liga race.

Real Madrid entered the match against Alaves under pressure to win in order to prevent Barcelona from widening the gap and to temporarily secure the job of coach Xabi Alonso.

However, the home team started confidently, organizing an aggressive pressing that forced the Spanish royal team to play slowly and cautiously.

Nevertheless, Real's attacking stars still knew how to make a difference. Mbappe and Rodrygo constantly troubled the Alaves defense, but their initial shots lacked the necessary accuracy.

The turning point of the match came in the 24th minute. From a clever run into the penalty area, Mbappe seized the opportunity to unleash a powerful shot into the top corner of the net, opening the scoring for the visitors.

The goal gave Real Madrid better control of the game, but Alaves didn't give up. The home team responded with a series of fluid passing combinations, even having a goal disallowed for offside.
