Kylian Mbappe secured Real Madrid a 1-1 draw against rivals Atletico Madrid, keeping Los Blancos top of La Liga on Saturday.

Julian Alvarez dinked home a controversial first-half penalty for Atletico but Mbappe was in the right place at the right time to bundle home early in the second half on his first appearance in the tense derby clash.

Reigning champions Real Madrid lead second-place Atletico by a single point, with third-place Barcelona, given the chance to cut the gap on the top two when they face Sevilla on Sunday.
