Real Madrid returned to winning ways in La Liga with a 4-1 home victory over neighbours Rayo Vallecano on Saturday. José Mourinho would not have been happy with Madrid’s second-half display but they had enough of a cushion thanks to Kylian Mbappé’s penalty and goals from Alvaro Carreras and Jude Bellingham in the opening period.

Kylian Mbappe has addressed the viral meme portraying him as a military dictator, admitting there is a funny side to it but warning that the joke also highlights a lack of political and human awareness.
