Real Madrid maintains perfect start with dominant 4-0 win over Malaga

At the Santiago Bernabeu on Sunday, Real Madrid continued their early-season march through La Liga with a 4-0 dismantling of newly promoted Malaga — a result that spoke less to the occasion than to the quiet, methodical confidence of a team that appears to know exactly what it is. Under Jose Mourinho, a side built around the individual brilliance of Bellingham and Mbappe is beginning to move with collective purpose, and the table already reflects the distance they are putting between themselves and the rest.
