Real Madrid started their La Liga campaign with a thrilling, yet nerve-wracking, 3-2 victory over Alaves at the Santiago Bernabéu.
The first half was a display of dominance from Los Blancos. Lucas Vazquez opened the scoring with a well-taken finish, followed by goals from summer signing Kylian Mbappe and Rodrygo to give them a comfortable 3-0 lead.
The second half saw a dramatic shift in momentum as Alaves mounted a spirited comeback. Carlos Protesoni pulled one back with a curling shot from outside the box, and veteran striker Kike Garcia added a second goal just minutes later, making the final stages of the game incredibly tense.
Despite the late scare, Real Madrid held on for the victory. Carlo Ancelotti’s side will be pleased to secure the three points but will be looking to improve their second-half performance in future matches.
