Mbappe capitalised on a defensive error to notch his fourth league goal of the season, but Madrid's task was made harder when defender Dean Huijsen was shown a red card. France striker Mbappe then turned provider for Arda Guler to give Madrid a 2-0 lead. Socieded reduced the deficit when Mikel Oyarzaba converted from the penalty spot. Madrid are top of the table with 12 points from four games - five ahead of defending champions Barcelona, who are fifth and face Valencia at 20:00 BST on Sunday. Xabi Alonso's side took the lead when Sociedad winger Mikel Goti's casual backpass caught his defence flat-footed. Mbappe comfortably outpaced Igor Zubeldia then shrugged off Duje Caleta-Car before he crisply fired home from the edge of the penalty area. Madrid were reduced to 10 men in the 32nd minute when Oyarzaba broke clear and was hauled down by Huijsen. Mbappe had a major hand in Madrid's second when he outfoxed Aritz Elustondo and cut the ball back from the byline through a crowded box for Guler to stylishly poke home. Sociedad were awarded a penalty shortly after half-time when Ander Barrenetxea's cross struck Dani Carvajal on the arm, and Oyarzaba calmly sent Thibaut Courtois the wrong way from the spot. Madrid showed their defensive fortitude - Trent Alexander-Arnold came on for Carvajal in the 82nd minute - to see out the game, which gave Basque-born Alonso a win over a club where he has strong ties. Alonso climbed through the ranks at Sociedad, played 126 games for their first team and began his senior coaching career in charge of the B side.

Arsenal came into this season on the back of a busy summer transfer window where they spent around £250m and brought in eight players to propel another push for the Premier League title. As they swept aside Nottingham Forest 3-0 with five of those new signings starting, the Gunners showed why such aggressive recruitment was justified. Mikel Arteta's side were without key trio Bukayo Saka, Kai Havertz and William Saliba through injury, while skipper Martin Odegaard limped off in only the 18th minute. But it mattered little as Arsenal showed their strength in depth to cruise to an impressive success. Viktor Gyokeres and Martin Zubimendi were their statement signings and likely to start regardless of the opposition. But with Declan Rice named as a substitute, manager Arteta has ripped up his tier system for this campaign, where he had a number of players who were guaranteed starters and expected to play most of the games. And despite their injury troubles, Arsenal have won three of their first four league games and are yet to concede a goal from open play.

A little more than a week ago, his goal against Brighton meant he claimed yet another Premier League record, with his 88 goals the most any player has scored in their first 100 games. Now, the Norwegian striker has taken his tally to 48 goals in 45 games for his country with five goals in their 11-1 win against Moldova on Tuesday. His fifth treble for Norway. Remember, he also scored 86 goals in 89 games for Dortmund, prior to coming to City. With such an incredible goalscoring record, it makes sense to consider the Manchester City striker an unbelievable finisher. But Haaland's finishing is not what makes him a phenomenal goalscorer.

Thomas Tuchel spoke like a man who knew the best night of his England reign was coming from the moment he landed in Belgrade. The German heard questions about his methods after the dire World Cup qualifier win against Andorra on Saturday - a fourth successive competitive victory, but one that ended with thousands of supporters at Villa Park voting with their feet long before the end. "I see what I see. I feel what I feel. I am convinced we will improve, then get better and better," said Tuchel before England's qualifier against Serbia. He echoed that message as he basked in the elation of Tuesday night's 5-0 triumph. Tuchel's side delivered on that promise - and then some - with a masterclass that swept Serbia aside in their own Belgrade fortress, the predicted hostile crowd silenced from virtually the first whistle by a performance of total domination. And, on what was the perfect night for Tuchel, he not only got the emphatic victory that puts England only five points away from World Cup qualification with three games left, he left Belgrade with the most pleasant of selection headaches to resolve. England finally showed attacking flair, doing it without Real Madrid's Jude Bellingham and Arsenal's Bukayo Saka - regarded as certain starters by most observers. Chelsea forward Cole Palmer was also missing, as was Phil Foden, hoping to rebuild his international career through his Manchester City performances. In their absence, Noni Madueke excelled with a goal and a fine individual display. He has now made five goal contributions in nine England appearances. Elliott Anderson built on the good impression he made on his debut against Andorra, while Aston Villa's Morgan Rogers was an increasing influence, looking at home at this elite level. Bellingham is always regarded the natural for England's number 10 position, but Rogers staked his claim and showed Tuchel he has alternatives should he want to utilise them.

The striker netted for the 39th time in World Cup qualifying matches, making him the joint-highest ever scorer alongside Guatemala's Carlos Ruiz - and three ahead of Argentina's Lionel Messi. Ronaldo, 40, extended his international record to 141 goals in 223 appearances for Portugal, the most by any male player for the country. His goal at the Puskas Arena on Tuesday came from the penalty spot in the 58th minute after Hungary forward Barnabas Varga had a 21st-minute opener cancelled out by Manchester City midfielder Bernardo Silva 15 minutes later. Varga equalised in the 84th minute and the hosts looked set for a point, but Joao Cancelo fired home just two minutes later to earn a dramatic victory for Roberto Martinez's side. Ronaldo also scored twice in Portugal's 5-0 win over Armenia on Saturday, leaving them top of Group F with six points from the opening two matches. Hungary are third on one point alongside the Republic of Ireland, who suffered a 2-1 setback in Armenia.
