The young Brazilian, who started on the bench, was later brought on and made an immediate impact. In stoppage time, VinÃcius added a third goal after a smooth combination with Brahim DÃaz, ensuring that Real Madrid left Oviedo with all three points.
Xabi Alonso’s tactical choices were highlighted by the starting positions of Dani Carvajal at right-back, while Trent Alexander-Arnold and VinÃcius Júnior were initially kept on the bench. The 18-year-old Franco Mastantuono was given a start in attack and impressed with his energy and movement, showing that Madrid’s future talents are being carefully nurtured.
Statistically, Real Madrid dominated almost every aspect of the game. They held 64.7% possession, completed 698 passes with a 92.6% pass accuracy, and registered 26 shots compared to Oviedo’s 6. Oviedo’s defensive efforts were noted, but they were ultimately overwhelmed by Madrid’s relentless attacking play.
The victory keeps Madrid at the top end of the early La Liga table alongside Barcelona and Villarreal, all with six points from two games. For Oviedo, the result extends a tough start to the season, with no points and only five goals conceded across two matches.
In the post-match analysis, it was observed that Real Madrid’s fluidity in attack, clinical finishing, and disciplined defense under Xabi Alonso’s guidance set the tone for a team that is clearly building momentum. Oviedo, on the other hand, will be left to regroup and rethink strategies after a challenging outing.
All in all, the match was a demonstration of Real Madrid’s class and efficiency, with Mbappé and VinÃcius Júnior leading the charge. As the season progresses, Madrid’s early form sends a clear signal to the rest of La Liga: they are serious contenders for the title.
