Kylian Mbappe calmly converted a 100th-minute penalty to give Real Madrid a dramatic 2–1 victory over nine-man Rayo Vallecano in a fiery La Liga derby on Sunday. The win cut Barcelona’s lead at the top to one point after their Saturday victory over Elche. Vinícius Junior opened the scoring after Jude Bellingham went off injured, but Jorge de Frutos equalised early in the second half. After red cards for Pathe Ciss and Pep Chavarria, Mbappe struck late to secure the win.
