With the score at 2-1, the French forward struck twice in the space of two minutes to seal Real\u2019s sixth win from six games, extending their lead at the top of the table to five points ahead of Barcelona.<\/p>\n
Mbapp\u00e9 opened the scoring from the penalty spot in the 64th minute, chipping a stylish \u2018Panenka\u2019 over Levante goalkeeper Mathew Ryan. He then added his second after a clever assist from Arda Guler, taking his league tally to seven goals this season.<\/p>\n
Earlier, Vinicius Jr had given Real the lead with a superb strike, bending the ball into the corner from a tight angle with the outside of his boot.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Barcelona have the opportunity to cut Real\u2019s advantage when they face Oviedo on Thursday.<\/p>\n
