Kylian Mbappé scored a hat-trick against Real Sociedad, guiding Real Madrid to their second La Liga winning.

The inspired and efficient French international striker made the way for Real Madrid club on Wednesday match, securing their three wining goal in as many La Liga matches against Real Sociedad (4-1). He is now joint top scorer in the league.

Kylian Mbappé is in great playing form and, after two Liga matches, he is already the joint top goals scorer in the Spanish league (along with Fermín Lopez) thanks to his hat-trick against Real Sociedad (4-1) on Wednesday evening match at the Bernabeu.

The French international striker opened the goal scoring with a powerful left-footed strike, then restored Real Madrid’s lead early in the second half, finishing off a magnificent one-two with Jude Bellingham assist. Beyond his clinical finishing, Real’s number 10 displayed a genuine understanding with Vinicius Jr.

He wasn’t the one who set up the Brazilian for Madrid’s third goal scoring, but he often looked for him – and vice versa – and he could have added a superb assist to his brace if Vini had been more clinical in (21 minute). However, this didn’t stop him from delivering a perfect pass to Mbappé in (80 minute), who, with a chipped left-footed finish, once again, made the end of the evening very comfortable for his team.

The first half, however, was somewhat less impressive. Apart from a fifteen-minute spell, from the 15 to the 30 minute match played, Real Madrid team hadn’t been in complete control. Luka Sucic’s equalizer at the very end of the first half punished a lack of defensive aggression, which could have been even more pronounced had it not been for a save by Thibaut Courtois in (11 minute) or if Sergio Gomez had been a little more clinical when volleying home Mikel Oyarzabal’s perfect cross in (35 minute).

But after the break, Real Madrid stepped up their 2nd half game. Marc Cucurella’s introduction injected new energy, Bellingham maintained the same level of intensity, and Mbappé kept his goal scoring touch. José Mourinho, returning to the Bernabéu bench thirteen years after his first stint, was then able to give playing time to Eduardo Camavinga and two of his new signing players, Yan Diomandé and Carlos Espi, so they could get used to their new surroundings.
