Real Madrid beat Valencia to draw level with La Liga leaders Barca
Kylian Mbappe scored for the seventh match running in Real Madrid's 3-0 win at 10-man Valencia.
Real Madrid's Kylian Mbappe scored his seventh consecutive match-winning goal as the Spanish giants secured a 3-0 victory over Valencia, drawing level on points with league leaders Barcelona. The match took place at Valencia's Mestalla stadium, where Jose Mourinho's team dominated and captured their eighth win in all competitions this season.
Federico Valverde and Arda Guler put Madrid ahead in the first half, with Mbappe adding a third in the second half. Without winger Vinicius Junior due to a four-match ban, Real Madrid managed to pressure leaders Barcelona, who had previously defeated them in a Camp Nou Clasico on October 25. Valencia's Guido Rodriguez had a goal disallowed for offside before the hosts took control of the match.
Valencia's Jose Gaya was sent off with 10 minutes left for a late foul on Mbappe, further complicating the situation for Javier Aguirre's team.
