Kylian Mbappé Propels Real Madrid to Top Spot with Victory Over Getafe
Posted on October 20, 2025
Kylian Mbappé continued his remarkable form by scoring the decisive goal in Real Madrid's 1-0 victory over Getafe, helping the team reclaim the top position in La Liga. This win comes after a tightly contested match at the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez, where Getafe faced significant challenges, ultimately finishing the game with nine players.
The match began with both teams showing determination, but it was a crucial moment just after the introduction of Getafe substitute Allan Nyom that turned the tide. Nyom received a red card merely one minute after coming onto the pitch, which allowed Real Madrid to capitalize on their numerical advantage. Following his dismissal, Real Madrid took control of the game, and it wasn’t long before Mbappé made his mark.
In the 80th minute, Mbappé, who had been a constant threat throughout the match, found the back of the net with a well-placed shot that curled into the bottom corner. This goal marked his tenth league goal of the season, further solidifying his status as one of the league's top scorers.
The match was not without its controversies, as Getafe’s manager José Bordalás expressed his discontent regarding the red cards issued to his players, particularly Nyom's. He argued that the decision was harsh and pivotal to the outcome of the game.
With this victory, Real Madrid has extended its lead at the top of the league, moving two points ahead of rivals Barcelona, who had briefly taken the lead with their own win earlier in the weekend. The win also sets the stage for an exciting matchup in the upcoming Clasico, as Madrid looks to maintain its momentum in both domestic and European competitions.
As they prepare for their next challenges, including upcoming matches in the Champions League, Real Madrid, led by Mbappé's prolific scoring, will aim to continue their strong start to the season.
