Kylian Mbappé delivered a dazzling display in Real Madrid’s white shirt, inspiring his team to a commanding 4-2 victory over Sevilla and ending 2024 on a high note.

Fresh off their FIFA Intercontinental Cup triumph in Qatar just four days earlier, Real Madrid returned to La Liga action with energy and purpose. From the outset, they looked determined to secure all three points at the Santiago Bernabéu. Mbappé set the tone early, igniting the crowd with a stunning long-range strike just 10 minutes into the match, showcasing the brilliance that has made him a global superstar.

The hosts continued to pile the pressure on Sevilla, and it wasn’t long before Carlo Ancelotti’s side doubled their lead. In the 20th minute, Fede Valverde unleashed a thunderous shot from outside the box, marking his fifth long-range goal of the season and leaving Sevilla’s defense reeling.

Rodrygo added to the scoreline in the 34th minute with a clinical finish on the end of a swift counter-attack, putting Madrid firmly in control. Sevilla managed to respond quickly through Isaac Romero, who struck just a minute later to give the visitors a glimmer of hope. However, any chance of a comeback was extinguished when Brahim Díaz restored Real Madrid’s three-goal advantage with a composed finish, capping off another impressive attacking move.

Although Dodi Lukebakio netted a consolation goal for Sevilla late on, it did little to alter the outcome. Real Madrid’s attacking prowess and dominant display ensured they secured all three points.

With the win, Los Blancos head into the holiday break with 40 points and a game in hand, sitting just behind Atlético Madrid in the La Liga standings. As 2024 draws to a close, Ancelotti’s team continues to look like serious contenders on all fronts.
