Full Match Highlights of Real Madrid's 2-1 La Liga Win Over Rayo Vallecano

Real Madrid managed a 2-1 win against Rayo Vallecano in their latest showdown at the Santiago Bernabeu on March 9.

They have now won two matches in a row with the same result, having beaten Atletico Madrid with an identical scoreline earlier in the week in the UEFA Champions League. Los Blancos have now returned to winning ways in the league after suffering a defeat against Real Betis last weekend.

Kylian Mbappe opened the scoring for the Madrid giants with a 30th-minute strike. He broke through from the left-hand side to find the back of the net. Four minutes later, it was Vinicius Jr's turn to cause damage from the same side as the Brazilian scored an eye-catching solo goal.
