Real Madrid defeated Real Valladolid with a convincing 0-3 at the José Zorrilla stadium. Kylian Mbappé was the standout figure of the game, scoring a hat trick that solidifies him as a key player for the team.

After the game, Carlo Ancelotti didn't hide his satisfaction and praised the French forward. In a press conference, the Italian coach highlighted Mbappé's impact on the team.

"It is a plus for us"

Ancelotti was enthusiastic about the performance of his star player:

"Mbappé has been playing like this for a while. It is the first time he has scored three goals and he is contributing to the team. He has gained momentum and is a plus for us because he is a player with a lot of quality".

The coach emphasized Mbappé's importance not only for his goals but also for his ability to make a difference in key moments.

The Frenchman scored all three goals of the match. The first, in the 30th minute, came after a filtered pass from Bellingham that Mbappé finished with precision.

The second, in the 57th minute, was the result of a quick play by Valverde and Rodrygo, leaving the forward one-on-one with the goalkeeper. He closed the night from the penalty spot in the 91st minute, completing his hat trick.

A key moment in LaLiga

With this victory, Madrid consolidates its position as the sole leader with 49 points, extending its lead to four over Atlético de Madrid, which drew 1-1 against Villarreal.

Ancelotti highlighted the importance of these three points but reminded that there is still a long championship ahead. "We must maintain focus and continue in this direction", he stated.

Real Madrid will face Espanyol in the next LaLiga match. Vinícius, after serving a suspension, will be available for a match where the whites will seek to further extend their lead at the top.

Mbappé's hat trick not only reinforces his status as the leader of the attack. It also excites Ancelotti, who sees in him a crucial piece to achieve the season's objectives. The quality and rhythm of the Frenchman are, in the coach's words, "an essential plus".
