Real Madrid's dominant Sevilla win fuels confidence ahead of Leipzig clash
Real Madrid celebrated a seventh victory in nine league matches with a commanding home heimsieg over FC Sevilla, yet the celebration was already tempered by the looming Champions League tie with RB Leipzig. The Spanish champions’ dominant Auftritt against Sevilla provided a morale boost, but the real test lies ahead.
Mbappé’s double seals the win
Kylian Mbappé, the club’s superstar striker, delivered a Doppelpack, scoring in the 37th minute to make it 2‑0 before halftime and later converting a Panenka‑style penalty in the 63rd minute. His season tally now reads nine goals and nine assists from nine LaLiga appearances.
Mourinho praises the performance
After the final whistle, manager José Mourinho told Real Total, “We have played well from the start. The players were focused, motivated and respected the opponent we analysed thoroughly. It was a very good evening.” He added that the display showed Real’s dominance beyond the simple result.
The match also featured a goal from Arda Güler in the 30th minute and a late strike by former Leipzig player Yan Diomande, who set up the penalty. Manu Bueno’s consolation came in the 80th minute, but Diomande’s follow‑up in the 82nd sealed the 4‑1 victory.
In LaLiga’s table, Real remain six points behind leaders FC Barcelona, maintaining pressure in the title race. The club’s performance was highlighted in the Bundesliga Vereinsforen 3 coverage, underscoring the cross‑league interest.
Looking forward, Real Madrid will travel to Leipzig on Wednesday at 21:00 () for the Champions League group‑stage encounter. The fixture follows the recent domestic triumph and serves as a benchmark for Mourinho’s side.
