Real Madrid is beating Elche this Tuesday on matchday 6 of the League. After a very even start to the match, Madrid was the one that took the lead on the scoreboard with a free kick from Arda Güler, who started tonight instead of Bellingham. The Turk shot at goalkeeper Dituro's post, who was stunned as the ball hit the post and ended up in the net. Mourinho's team began to dominate the match and the second came eight minutes later thanks to Mbappé. The competition goes one step further with the contest of an interweekly day. The team led by José Mourinho is looking for a second consecutive victory after the defeat against Betis in La Cartuja and visits Martínez Valero, where last year they did not go beyond a draw (2-2). However, Eder Sarabia's Elche started the season much better than this year with Martín Anselmi, being the penultimate classified with two draws and three defeats.
