Kylian Mbappé and Vinícius Júnior scored goals in a five-minute span in the first half and Real Madrid held on to beat Rayo Vallecano 2-1 and move level on points with Barcelona at the top of the Spanish league.

The La Liga title race between Barcelona, Real Madrid and Atlético Madrid is heading toward a must-see finish.

However, the remaining La Liga fixtures have been played and have thrown up some interesting results, not least at the Estadio Coliseum where Getafe dented Atletico’s title hopes by winning 2-1. Atletico went ahead in the 75th minute when substitute Alexander Sorloth came off the bench to convert a penalty for a controversial handball that left the hosts absolutely fuming.
