Real Madrid claimed a 3-0 LaLiga win at promoted Real Oviedo, with Kylian Mbappe scoring in each half before Vinicius Junior added a late third to seal the match.
Mbappe put Real ahead in the 37th minute after Aurelien Tchouameni won the ball off Leander Dendoncker in midfield and quickly fed Arda Guler, who slipped a pass to the Frenchman who turned sharply on the edge of the box and drilled a low shot into the net.
The resilient hosts nearly snatched an equaliser when Kwasi Sibo's low drive struck the post and bounced out.
Instead, it was Real who struck in the 83rd minute, once again regaining possession in midfield. Substitute Vinicius slipped the ball through to Mbappe, who finished coolly to double the lead.
Deep into stoppage time, Vinicius found himself unmarked in the box and calmly picked out the far corner to add Real's third and final goal.
Trent Alexander-Arnold came on a late replacement for Dani Carvajal.
