Kylian Mbappe started and finished the scoring for Real Madrid on Saturday night
**Real Madrid** returned to winning ways in LaLiga with a 4-1 victory over neighbours **Rayo Vallecano**.
Jose Mourinho would not have been happy with Madrid's second-half display but they had enough of a cushion thanks to Kylian Mbappe’s penalty and goals from Alvaro Carreras and Jude Bellingham in the opening period.
Sergio Camello pulled one back early in the second half, and Thibaut Courtois was a busy man for a period, but Mbappe made sure of the points in stoppage time.
Real suffered their first defeat of the campaign last Friday when they were beaten by Real Betis before they saw off Inter Milan in the Champions League in midweek.
Diego Moreira scored twice in three minutes as **AC Milan** came from two down to draw 2-2 at **Lazio**, who dropped points in Serie A for the first time this season.
The hosts were well on top in the first half and led through goals from Matteo Cancellieri and Tijjani Noslin.
Milan boss Ruben Amorim rung the changes at half-time
But a triple substitution from Ruben Amorim at the break paid dividends as Milan were much improved in the second half and Moreira dragged them level with goals in the 65th and 67th minutes.
In the Bundesliga, **Freiburg** are top after thumping **Borussia Monchengladbach** 5-0 for their third straight win.
**Borussia Dortmund** also have maximum points thanks to a 3-0 victory over **Paderborn**.
Fabio Silva put Dortmund ahead in the fifth minute but the scoreline was only made to look comfortable thanks to a late Felix Nmecha double.
Patrik Schick’s 89th-minute equaliser earned **Bayer Leverkusen** a 2-2 draw with **Augsburg**.
In Ligue 1, leaders **Monaco** were held for the first time this season, drawing 1-1 with **Strasbourg**.
A Sadibou Sane own goal put **Strasbourg** ahead in the 52nd minute but Paris Brunner drew **Monaco** level with 19 minutes remaining.
