Real Madrid held off a late Alaves fightback to claim a 2-1 victory at the Bernabéu, with Kylian Mbappé and Vinicius Junior’s first-half goals proving decisive despite Tomás Martínez’s dramatic 93rd-minute consolation.

Real Madrid entered the match sitting second in La Liga with 70 points from 31 games. Alaves arrived in 17th place, struggling with just 33 points and desperate to avoid the relegation zone. The hosts dominated possession throughout but faced a determined defensive display from their visitors.

Mbappé opened the scoring in the 30th minute, firing past Alaves’ goalkeeper to give Madrid an early advantage. The French forward’s clinical finish came after he latched onto a loose ball in the penalty area. Real Madrid’s attacking threat remained constant as they controlled the tempo.

Aurélien Tchouameni received a yellow card in the 35th minute for a heavy challenge. The midfielder’s caution reflected Madrid’s aggressive approach to breaking down Alaves’ compact defense. Despite their dominance, Madrid struggled to create clear-cut chances beyond Mbappé’s opener.

The second half began with Madrid extending their lead. Vinicius Junior doubled the advantage in the 50th minute, capitalizing on Alaves’ defensive vulnerability. The Brazilian winger’s finish appeared to have settled the contest comfortably for the home side.

Madrid controlled the ball for 62 percent of the match and registered 24 total shots. However, only eight efforts tested Alaves’ goalkeeper. Vinicius Junior delivered an outstanding performance, earning a 9.5 rating and creating five key passes alongside his goal.

Alaves showed resilience in the closing stages. Tomás Martínez pulled one back in the 90+3rd minute with a late header, setting up a tense finale. The visitors had registered only four shots on target throughout the match, making their late goal a rare moment of attacking success.

Real Madrid’s defense held firm despite Alaves’ desperate final push. The hosts completed 628 passes with 90 percent accuracy, showcasing their control. Dean Huijsen impressed in central defense, earning an 8.9 rating and making three crucial tackles.
