Real Madrid remains in the wake of their cousins Atletico and overtakes Barcelona into second place in LaLiga. Ancelotti's team, despite the defensive emergency, won against Sevilla with a clear 4-2, finishing the match in half an hour with goals from Mbappe, Valverde and Rodrygo. The guests try to reopen it with Moreno in the 35th minute, but at the start of the second half Brahim Diaz sets the result at 4-1. Only four minutes from the end did the Andalusians score again, with Lukebakio, but were unable to truly reopen the match.
