Real Madrid Beat Espanyol 2-0 in La Liga Despite Ferland Mendy's Red Card

Real Madrid made it four La Liga wins in a row on Saturday, beating struggling Espanyol 2-0 at home despite seeing Ferland Mendy sent off.

Raphael Varane opened the scoring in the first half, and Karim Benzema doubled the advantage after 79 minutes. Mendy added some late drama by picking up a second bookable offence, but Los Blancos held on for the win.

What's Next?

Real travel to Belgium for a UEFA Champions League clash with Club Brugge on Wednesday. Espanyol host CSKA Moscow in the UEFA Europa League a day later.
