Real Madrid have opened their La Liga title defence with a muted 1-1 draw at Mallorca.
Los Blancos were left frustrated in Palma as Kylian Mbappe’s long awaited La Liga debut ended in a tie in the Balearics.
With so much attention on Mbappe’s big night in Mallorca, Real Madrid looked on course for a routine win, as Rodrygo Goes fired home an early breakthrough.
However, as the visitors failed to find that all-important second goal either side of the break, they left themselves vulnerable to an equaliser.
Mallorca stayed in the game in the second half and Vedat Muriqi powered home a towering header to drag the hosts level.
The home side dug in late on, and created chances to win the game on the break, but they were happy to seize a point against the defending champions.
Up next for Real Madrid is their first home game of the campaign as Real Valladolid head to the Spanish capital on August 25.
