Real Madrid's 3-0 win over Valencia has seen the team draw level with Barcelona in the league. The victory was achieved without much effort, as reported by NOS Voetbal. The match began with a tribute to the late Tenerife striker Jesús de Miguel, with all players wearing a special white shirt and laying a wreath on the pitch.
Valencia's coach, Javier Aguirre, had strengthened his defense for the match against Real Madrid. He brought in Justin de Haas as the fifth defender, a 26-year-old Dutch player who had previously played for Jong AZ and Jong PSV. De Haas had also played for Valencia via Croatia and Portugal.
Real Madrid's Kylian Mbappé scored the first goal after a free kick was blocked by the wall, and Federico Valverde scored the second goal in the rebound. Arda Güler scored the third goal for Real Madrid, after receiving a pass from Jude Bellingham.
