• Real Madrid beat Osasuna 1-0 at the Santiago Bernabéu as Kylian Mbappé won and converted a 51st-minute penalty.
• Xabi Alonso collected his first three league points as Madrid manager with visible emphasis on a higher block and pressing.
• Madrid controlled close to 80% possession and fashioned several first-half chances but struggled to unlock a disciplined low block.
• Wearing the No. 10 after Luka Modrić’s exit, Mbappé was named man of the match following a lively performance from the left.
• Summer signings Dean Huijsen, Álvaro Carreras and Trent Alexander-Arnold made calm competitive debuts, with Bellingham, Camavinga, Endrick and Mendy injured and Rüdiger suspended; the next test comes Sunday at promoted Oviedo.
