Kylian Mbappe scored a hat-trick as Real Madrid defeated Real Sociedad 4-1 at Santiago Bernabeu in La Liga. The home side, described in the source as Jose Mourinho’s team, secured a second consecutive victory and strengthened its position at the top of the league table. Vinicius Junior also scored, while Jude Bellingham contributed to the attacking display.
Real Sociedad created the first major chance in the 11th minute, but Thibaut Courtois stopped Mikel Oyarzabal’s shot with his foot. Mbappe opened the scoring in the 40th minute after controlling a pass from Fede Valverde. Luka Susic equalised for Sociedad shortly before half-time, taking advantage of weakness in Madrid’s defence.
Madrid dominated after the break. Mbappe scored his second in the 60th minute following an exchange with Bellingham, before Vinicius made it 3-1 eight minutes later from Bellingham’s pass. Mbappe completed his hat-trick in the 80th minute with a powerful finish from Vinicius’ through ball. A late Brahim Diaz goal was disallowed by VAR.
