"Vini Jr. and I read each other very well, the best players are here and we're ready to win a lot of games and trophies", said the scorer of the first goal.

Kylian Mbappé opened the scoring as Real Madrid ran out victors at the Municipal de Butarque stadium. The Real Madrid forward, named MVP of the match and with nine goals this season, spoke to Realmadrid TV at the end of the game: "We came here to win as we knew how important the match was. We had to win after Barcelona's draw. We got off to a good start, playing with a good tempo and doing well at Leganés' ground. We scored the first goal, which is always important away from home, and then in the final stretch we got the other two".

"Vini Jr. and I read each other very well. I've got a great relationship with him and he's a great player. The best players are here and we are ready to win a lot of games and trophies".

His performance

"I think I put in a good performance. I'm starting to get upto speed with my team-mates. I can play in every position and I'm ready to help the team and give my all".

His position on the left

"It's the story of my career. I play on the right, on the left, in the middle and with two up top. It doesn't matter to me. I want to help the team and score goals".

Praise for Valverde

"He's a very important player. People don't speak much about him, but he's very important for us. He's won a lot of trophies here. I hope he continues like this because he is a great player".

Training sessions

"Training with the boys from Castilla is very good for me. They've got a lot of quality and I'm physically in good shape and ready to help the team".
