Mbappé Shines After Position Swap at Real Madrid

In a significant tactical move, Real Madrid's Kylian Mbappé found his form again after a position swap with Vinícius Júnior in their LaLiga match against Leganés on Sunday, November 24. Mbappé, who had been facing criticism for his recent performances, scored the opening goal in the 43rd minute, converting a pass from Vinícius Júnior from close range.

This goal marked Mbappé's first for Real Madrid in five games and came after he was deployed on the left-hand side of the attack, a position he seems more comfortable with. `I think [Mbappé] is more used to playing [on the left],` said Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti. `Today that was best for the team, and for him too. On the outside it's more tiring, and Vini had returned [from international duty] on Thursday. Mbappé was fresher than Vinicius. He did very well with the goal, after a fantastic assist from Vini.`

The match ended with a 3-0 victory for Real Madrid, with additional goals from Federico Valverde and Jude Bellingham in the second half. This win was crucial as Real Madrid prepares to face Liverpool in the Champions League on Wednesday, a match they need to win after losing twice in their first four Champions League games.

Results:
- Real Madrid 3, Leganés 0
- Kylian Mbappé (43')
- Federico Valverde (second half)
- Jude Bellingham (second half)

Top Scorers:
- Kylian Mbappé (7 goals in 12 league appearances)
