Kylian Mbappe produced a virtuoso performance at the Santiago Bernabeu on Saturday evening, leading Real Madrid to a commanding 4-1 victory over Rayo Vallecano. The French superstar was at the heart of everything positive for Jose Mourinho's side, netting a clinical brace and providing an assist to ensure Los Blancos bounced back from their recent domestic struggles in style.

Jose Mourinho has opened up on the internal dynamics at Real Madrid, insisting he has not needed to intervene in the relationship between Aurelien Tchouameni and Federico Valverde. The Portuguese tactician also jumped to the defence of Vinicius Jr, using a colourful proverb to silence the Brazilian's recent critics.

Indonesian international goalkeeper Emil Audero has sealed a deadline-day loan move to Rayo Vallecano from Como for the remainder of the season. The 29-year-old shot-stopper arrives in the Spanish capital to replace the injured Augusto Batalla, having found his opportunities limited in Serie A following the Italian side's signing of Robert Sanchez.

Anthony Gordon has enjoyed a remarkable start to his Barcelona career following his transfer from Newcastle United. After providing his third assist in as many games during a 5-2 thrashing of Rayo Vallecano, the England winger highlighted the severe tactical differences between the Premier League and La Liga. Gordon believes Spanish football requires a level of intelligence that many English sides lack.
