Dive into Bwin’s post-match review of Real Madrid 2-0 Sevilla in the La Liga on Saturday, 20 December 2025, with stats, key moments and our take on the match.
Real Madrid secured a 2-0 victory over Sevilla at home. The first half saw Real Madrid take control, with Jude Bellingham opening the scoring in the 38th minute after an assist from Rodrygo, building on their recent form that included wins against Deportivo Alavés and Athletic Club. Sevilla, coming off a mixed run with a win over Real Oviedo but losses to Real Betis and Espanyol, picked up several yellow cards early on, including one for Marcão in the 37th minute, which set a tense tone.
The second half brought more discipline issues for Sevilla, as Marcão received a second yellow card in the 68th minute, reducing them to ten men. Real Madrid capitalised late on, with Kylian Mbappé converting a penalty in the 86th minute to seal the win, following substitutions like Eduardo Camavinga coming on for Arda Güler in the 72nd minute to maintain midfield stability. This result extends Real Madrid’s strong recent performances, while Sevilla’s defeat adds to their struggles in away games.
Real Madrid edged possession at 53% compared to Sevilla’s 47%, allowing them to dictate much of the tempo, though Sevilla remained competitive with five corners to Real Madrid’s six. The home side’s 68 successful dribbles far outpaced Sevilla’s 42, highlighting their effectiveness in breaking lines, while Real Madrid’s single assist and penalty conversion underscored their clinical edge without needing many substitutions—using just three, including Eduardo Camavinga replacing Arda Güler at 72 minutes, Gonzalo García for Vinicius Junior at 83 minutes, and David Jiménez for Raúl Asencio at 90+3 minutes.
Sevilla, in contrast, deployed all five substitutions, such as Oso for Gabriel Suazo at 60 minutes and a triple change at 84 minutes with Alfon González for Batista Mendy, Adnan Januzaj for Lucien Agoumé, and Kike Salas for José Ángel Carmona, but their discipline faltered with five yellow cards and one red via Marcão’s second yellow, limiting their comeback potential against Real Madrid’s two yellows.
Jude Bellingham’s goal in the 38th minute, assisted by Rodrygo, gave Real Madrid a deserved lead after they built pressure, though Rodrygo soon picked up a yellow card in the 41st minute for a foul. Sevilla’s situation worsened when Marcão received a second yellow card in the 68th minute for another infringement, leaving them with ten players and prompting substitutions like Peque Fernández replacing Isaac Romero at 70 minutes to chase the game.
The match was sealed by Kylian Mbappé’s penalty in the 86th minute, awarded after a foul, while late VAR checks on Jude Bellingham at 89 minutes and Rodrygo at 90+2 minutes confirmed no further changes. Real Madrid’s substitutions, such as Eduardo Camavinga coming on for Arda Güler at 72 minutes, helped maintain control amid Sevilla’s mounting cards, including Lucien Agoumé’s yellow at 70 minutes and Djibril Sow’s at 90+1 minutes.
Real Madrid lined up in a 4-3-3 formation, with Jude Bellingham anchoring the midfield and linking effectively with Rodrygo, who provided the assist for the opener before his yellow card. Kylian Mbappé led the attack, converting the late penalty, while partnerships like Vinicius Junior’s runs created space until his substitution for Gonzalo García. Raúl Asencio contributed defensively but saw a yellow card before David Jiménez replaced him late on, with Eduardo Camavinga adding energy after coming on for Arda Güler.
Sevilla deployed a 5-3-2 shape, relying on defensive solidity that frayed with early yellow cards for José Ángel Carmona and Marcão, the latter earning a red after his second booking. Lucien Agoumé and Djibril Sow battled in midfield but collected cards, while substitutions like Oso for Gabriel Suazo and Peque Fernández for Isaac Romero aimed to adjust the attack. Adnan Januzaj and Alfon González came on late for Lucien Agoumé and Batista Mendy respectively, alongside Kike Salas replacing José Ángel Carmona, in a bid to shore up the backline.
Jude Bellingham earned Bwin’s Man of the Match award for his pivotal role in Real Madrid’s win, scoring one goal and delivering three key passes that kept the attack flowing. Although he created no big chances or assists in the stats, his timing and composure shone through, especially with the 38th-minute opener that set the tone. Bellingham’s performance stood out in a controlled display, even amid a late VAR check on him.
