Vinícius Júnior and Rodrygo came through in the absence of Karim Benzema to keep Real Madrid perfect this season. Vinícius and Rodrygo scored second-half goals as Madrid came from behind to defeat Mallorca 4-1 for its fifth straight win in the Spanish La Liga 2022-23 on Sunday. Madrid were without the injured Benzema and other regular starters as coach Carlo Ancelotti rotated his squad ahead of the team’s UEFA Champions League match against Leipzig on Wednesday. The 22-year-old Vinícius, who also scored against Celtic in the Champions League, became the youngest Madrid player to score in four consecutive league matches since 21-year-old Gonzalo Higuaín in 2009.
