Federico Valverde also scored for Carlo Ancelotti's side, who have a game in hand over league leaders Barcelona, ​​who were held to a 2-2 draw with Celta Vigo on Saturday.

Mbappe ended a goal drought of more than 400 minutes after being denied by Vinicius Junior shortly before half-time, moments after Leganes had surrendered possession on the edge of their own area.

Madrid dominated possession throughout the second half and doubled their lead in the 66th minute, with Valverde scoring home with little effort from a free-kick won by Bellingham.

9 – Only Kylian Mbappé (10) has scored more goals from outside the box in the Top 5 European leagues in all competitions than Federico Valverde (nine as six other players).

Mbappé's opener, which scored at a crucial moment shortly before the break, put Madrid on the road to victory on Sunday.

Eduardo Camavinga and Bellingham have both pushed high to help the visitors regain possession in the build-up, and Madrid have now scored five goals as a result of high turnover in LaLiga this season – the most of any team in the top five leagues of Europe.

This was the first time Ancelotti had faced Leganes in LaLiga, and he has now defeated all 28 different opponents he has faced in the competition.
