A goal from Vedat Muriqi halted Real Madrid at Son Moix, as Los Blancos could only manage a 1-1 draw against Mallorca on Sunday.

For Kylian Mbappe, it was from dream to reality as he made his La Liga debut despite not scoring a goal.

With his pace and quick feet, he posed a threat to the pirate defence.

However, it was a familiar face who opened the scoring for Carlo Ancelotti’s men just 13 minutes after.

A nice touch from Vinicius Jr. left the ball for Rodrygo, who curled a lovely strike into the far corner to give Real the advantage.

Their inability to convert their chances into goals proved costly as the home side leveled the match after the restart, with Vedat Muriqi sending a powerful header past the diving Thibaut Courtois.

According to Persecondnews, Mallorca was close to securing a win in the final minutes, with a double chance for Antonio Sánchez.
