Sevilla 0-2 Real Madrid result – Jude Bellingham and Kylian Mbappe goals help Blancos to victory against nine-man Sevilla

Goals from Kylian Mbappe and Jude Bellingham saw Real Madrid bounce back from the disappointment of missing out on the Liga title in an unconvincing 2-0 win over nine-man Sevilla.

The home side were quickly reduced to 10-men inside 13 minutes when the Frenchman broke the offside trap before being brought down just inside Sevilla’s half by Loic Bade, who left referee Mateo Busquets Ferrer with little choice but to brandish a straight red card.

Whilst play swung in the favour of the visitors, with 18-year-old Endrick, Federico Valverde and Mbappe having opportunities to open the scoring, it was the home side who went close to taking the lead just before the break when Garcia Pascual strode through on goal before remarkably firing wide.

Sevilla were reduced to nine-men shortly after half-time when substitute Isaac Romero was sent off just 35 seconds after coming onto the pitch, following a studs-up challenge on Aurelien Tchouameni, with VAR overturning the initial yellow card shown.

It would take another 30 minutes before Real Madrid would find the breakthrough as Mbappe fired from range to find the bottom corner and almost certainly seal the golden boot competition.

Los Blancos doubled their lead through Bellingham just before the full-time whistle, when the Englishman converted Gonzalo Garcia’s headed cross from close range to secure a win in Real Madrid’s final away game under Carlo Ancelotti before his departure in the summer.

Whilst they had little to play for with Barcelona securing the title midweek, this would not have been the performance to bounce back from disappointment.

It took two dismissals and 75 minutes before Real Madrid found the breakthrough, via a lovely low drive from range from Kylian Mbappe, who tried to create something out of nothing at times.

Whilst it was 39-year-old Luka Modric, who looked his vintage, prime self who, along with Mbappe, were the source of inspiration for much of the 90 minutes.

Frustrations appeared obvious the longer the game went on, with Mbappe clashing heads with Kike Salas, along with Jude Bellingham picking up another yellow card, which would see him suspended for the final game of the season.

For anyone watching this Real Madrid side, many would be quickly turning their attention to next season and what the new manager at the helm could change in this rather inconsistent side.

Modric sees his effort saved in the last piece of action.

Real Madrid manage to squeeze out a 2-0 win against nine-man Sevilla, after goals from Kylian Mbappe and Jude Bellingham in their final away win of the season.

It's a rather muted celebration from Bellingham but it counts as he converts Gonzalo Garcia's headed cross from very close range to double Real Madrid's lead.

Mbappe receives the ball and sprints down the left hand side before unleashing one at Nyland, who gets down low to make the save on his second attempt.

Another change for the home side as Manu Bueno replaces Djibril Sow.

A double change also for Sevilla as Juanlu is replaced by Peque Fernandez, and Albert Sambi Lokonga comes on for Suso.

There's a standing ovation from the home faithful as Suso comes off, with 31-year-old likely to be departing the club at the end of the season.

Lucas Vazquez and Dani Ceballos are on in place of Fran Garcia and Arda Guler.

Finally we have the breakthrough!

And it's none other than Mbappe with a low, powerful drive from the edge of the box to find the bottom corner.

Surely he's sealed the LaLiga golden boot now.

When will they find the opener?

Modric finds Mbappe, who cuts back and shoots with his right foot. It's rising but looks to be heading goalwards before it clips the crossbar.

It's time for a cooling break as the referee stops play after a flood of yellow balloons enter the pitch.

Gonzalo Garcia replaces Jesus Vallejo

Bellingham picks up a booking for a foul on Juanlu and as a result, sees his LaLiga campaign come to an early end with a suspension.

But his effort from range blasts over the crossbar.

This is relentless from Real Madrid but they're still unable to break up nine-men Sevilla.

And still they can't find that breakthrough.

Sevilla are split open in their own box as Real Madrid make it look incredibly easy.

Modric finds Valverde once again but his effort is blocked by Gudelj on the line.

The offside flag eventually appears and play rebuilds.

Victor Munoz comes on for Endrick, who appears to have picked up an injury.

Now it's Mbappe's turn to take sight of goal as he dances in before his shot takes a huge deflection.

In the aftermath, Kike Salas and Mbappe appear to have a rather heated exchange but it's quickly broken up by their teammates.

Modric finds Valverde outside the box but his low drive blasts past the far post and out for a goal-kick.
