Álvaro Carreras

A nice bounce back from that defeat to Betis last weekend as well.

Mbappe with the brace, Alvaro Carreras, and our lord and savior, Jude Bellingham, with the goals in that one.

And they are keeping pace three points behind Barcelona at the top.

Atletico Madrid scored three late goals to beat Sociedad 3-0 as well.

So this was a 4-1 victory against Rayo.

Mbappé with the early penalty, then he teed up Álvaro Carreras.

Bellingham got another goal before half-time to make the game pretty safe.

Sergio Camillo continued his scoring streak.

So yeah, there's still improvements there.

But of course, it was a blow for Rayo to give away the early penalty, as you would expect, coolly slotted by Mbappe.

I think Carreras was also impressive.

He won the penalty.

[upbeat music] Kylian Mbappe was on the score sheet twice for Real Madrid in their 4-1 win over Rayo Vallecano.

Alvaro Carreras and Jude Bellingham also in on the action.

And we got to see Camejo get a goal for Rayo Vallecano as he continues to make his name in the Pichichi standings.

They did what they had to do today, Luis.

a tactical

change to bring Alvaro Carreras on.

So, that's why I'm saying that.

The weight of Lami Yama should hit into their heads.

Remember that crazy January where Shaw was injured, Malacia was injured.

And they got rid of Alvaro Fernandes, and basically we ended up playing Amrabat at left back.

That was absolutely ridiculous.

And yeah, Reguilon even we had on loan and let him go.

If you don't go off the pitch fast enough, your replacement isn't allowed to come on until the next time the ball goes out of play.

And Alvaro Carreras was standing on the side waiting to come on for Vinicius Jr.

And just Michael Oliver was like, no.

You have to come on when the crowd are getting louder and louder and louder.

Madrid's lightning-fast move was the clearest sign of just how serious they were in the transfer window.

By beating Barcelona and Atletico Madrid to the punch, they reached an agreement worth €55m plus €5m in add-ons for the 28-year-old, despite already having three left-backs on their books in Alvaro Carreras, Ferlan Mendy and Fran Garcia, who would eventually leave for Real Betis in a switch worth €4 million, with Madrid retaining a 50% sell-on clause.

Yes, John?

It's nice to see that you've incorporated the correct pronunciation of Alvaro.

Right.

And now I know that it's Alvaro.

So I'm applying it to Alvaro Carreras, who I'm sure I'm butchering his surname instead.

There we go.

But like, yeah, it's the same.

Like someone was like, why not? Alvaro Carreras can't get a game at Real Madrid.

Just sign him online.

It's just like just a temporary measure.
