Mbappe's goals fired Madrid to a comfortable home win over Real Sociedad Thomas COEX / AFP via Getty Images Jose Mourinho praised “insane” Kylian Mbappe after the striker scored a hat-trick as Real Madrid defeated Real Sociedad 4-1 in the head coach’s return to the home dugout at the Bernabeu. The France international striker, the Golden Boot winner at this summer’s World Cup, continued his rich form in front of goal to make it two La Liga wins from two for Mourinho, who was re-appointed at Madrid — whom he previously managed between 2010 and 2013 — this summer. I’m really glad he made history at the World Cup because only one player is truly for the ages, the one with the most World Cup goals. I can see he’s absolutely raring to make history with Real Madrid. The 27-year-old opened the scoring five minutes before the break but Luka Sucic equalised for the visitors in the 44th minute.
