Real Madrid finally returned to winning ways in La Liga. On December 14, Xabi Alonso's men narrowly overcame Alavés away from home.
Kylian Mbappé opened the scoring in the first half with his 70th goal for the royal club. The Frenchman has netted 48 times in La Liga, 2 in the Copa del Rey, 1 in the Spanish Super Cup, 16 in the Champions League, and once each in the Club World Cup, Intercontinental Cup, and UEFA Super Cup.
In the second half, Alavés equalized, but a precise strike from Rodrygo secured all three points for Madrid in the Basque Country. Real picked up their first win in three matches and held onto second place in the La Liga table, trailing Barcelona by four points.
