Real Madrid beat Valladolid away on Saturday in the 21st round of the La Liga campaign by 3-0, courtesy of a Kylian Mbappe hat-trick.

This victory has increased the lead Carlo Ancelotti’s men have at the top of the table to four points, after second-place Atletico Madrid played a 1-1 draw at home against Villarreal. They’ve also put significant pressure on Barcelona in third to beat Valencia on Sunday, as a potential defeat would leave the Catalans 10 points adrift of their arch-rivals.

After a somewhat underwhelming start to the season at his new club, Mbappe now has 18 goals and three assists in 30 games across all competitions for Real Madrid, gradually justifying his reputation as one of the finest attacking players on the planet.
