Late Mbappe Magic Seals Surprise Top Spot as Alonso’s Real Madrid Edge Getafe
Real Madrid reclaimed top spot from rivals Barcelona in LaLiga as Kylian Mbappe’s late goal earned them a narrow 1-0 win over nine-man Getafe on Sunday.
Xabi Alonso’s team came into the match under pressure after Ronald Araujo’s stoppage-time winner for the Blaugrana temporarily sent them down to second place.
But Los Blancos responded to go two points clear at the summit, albeit in unconvincing fashion, after a sluggish performance at the Coliseum.
Despite dominating possession, Madrid lacked a cutting edge and failed to properly test David Soria until the final ten minutes of the contest after two quickfire red cards.
