Kylian Mbappé failed to score for the first time in the new LaLiga season as Real Madrid came from behind to preserve their 100% start by beating Mallorca.

The France superstar had two goals disallowed and teammate Arda Güler a third as Madrid were made to work hard for a 2-1 win at the Bernabeu, with Güler and Vinícius Júnior on target within a minute of each other after Vedat Muriqi had given the visitors a shock lead with the first goal conceded by Xabi Alonso's men this term.

Trent Alexander-Arnold, back in the starting lineup a day after being left out of Thomas Tuchel's England squad, almost announced himself in style within five minutes when he slid a pass through the heart of the Mallorca defence to put Mbappé  in on goal and saw the striker finish, only for an offside flag to ruin the moment.

The former Liverpool defender continued to be heavily involved as the hosts pushed for the opening goal, but the breakthrough finally arrived at the other end.

There were 18 minutes gone when Muriqi, restored to the Mallorca team after suspension following his sending-off against Barcelona, challenged Aurélien Tchouaméni for Pablo Torre's inswinging corner and deflected the ball into the net with his back.

Muriqi went close to a second with a 25th-minute attempt after more good work by Torre with the visitors settling into the contest.

Mallorca keeper Leo Román enjoyed an escape 13 minutes before the break when he fumbled a Tchouaméni shot from distance and saw the ball almost spin into his goal, but his luck was to turn markedly.

He was finally beaten with 37 minutes gone when Güler pounced after defender Dean Huijsen had headed back across goal from a quickly-taken corner, and then once again just seconds later when Vinícius made the most of Federico Valverde's determination to win the ball back by firing home off the far post.

In an eventful finish to the first half, Mbappé saw a second goal disallowed for offside as over-eagerness cost him once again.

The hosts thought they had extended their lead when Franco Mastantuono's 55th-minute shot was saved by Roman and Güler bundled the rebound across the line, only for referee Jose Maria Sanchez Martinez to rule after a VAR review that the Turkey international had handled.

Mallorca might have been level with 62 minutes gone had full-back Álvaro Carreras not produced a stunning goal-line clearance with the game still in the balance.

Alexander-Arnold's evening ended with 17 minutes remaining when he was replaced by Dani Carvajal, and he watched from the bench as his team made it across the finishing line with their lead intact.
