Mbappe breaks the past… and awaits the first Clásico
Real Madrid’s first team in the Spanish league on Saturday, preparing for his first Clásico with his dream club, French star Kylian Mbappe has reached his usual level despite problems outside the green box and some injuries.
It wasn’t the first time Mbappe witnessed Real Madrid’s greatness, as his side went down 0-2 against German Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League, but the Royals once again came from behind. A nice remontada achieved 5-2.
In the middle of the pitch, Mbappe looked in awe of the giant screen at the Santiago Bernabeu, as if he had begun to experience the supernatural reality of the Spanish capital’s team.
Spanish newspaper Marca wrote: “Kylian Mbappe arrived at Real Madrid for a great European evening and since Tuesday he has been aware of the collective hysteria that has spread across the Santiago Bernabeu, Remontada and the entire stadium.”
Determined and active in his acceleration, Mbappe, who has been absent from his country’s national team, finally suffered a muscle injury in his left thigh in the second half, along with his Brazilian attack partner Vinicius Junior, who scored a hat-trick. And a likely candidate to win the Ballon d’Or for the best player in the world this year.
After an injury hampered him in late September, and it later proved to be less serious than expected, his name was linked to a Swedish investigation into the crime, despite all his troubles off the stadium, and he joined his former French club Paris Saint-Germain in financial terms. are in conflict.
His Italian coach Carlo Ancelotti said: “He has benefited from the international break to improve his condition, recover from injury.” He is in great shape, happy and willing to play and is important to the team. The 15 days have helped him, as he is a different player than he was before the international break.
After assisting the first two goals for the Merengues on Tuesday, notably with a decisive pass for German defender Antonio Rudiger, Mbappe is getting off to a good start with the team he loved as a child as he hangs up a giant picture of his Portuguese star Cristiano. Ronaldo is in his room.
The 25-year-old scored six goals in nine league matches, including three penalty kicks and two special goals against Alaves (3-2) and Celta Vigo (2-1), and two assists in various competitions. -Purono became the top scorer for his new team.
As the “AS” sports newspaper wrote, he is close to his statistical curve of last season, his best, as he finished it with 44 goals in 48 matches. At the same time last season, he scored nine goals (8 in the French league and one in the Champions League).
The last Qatar World Cup top scorer confirmed at the start of the season whether he wanted to score 50 goals, saying, “We are at Real Madrid, if you can score 50 goals we have no limits!” But the most important thing is to win and develop as a team, because we will win as a team.”
He added, “Whoever talks about Real Madrid talks about the title. We have to win here.”
No doubt his scoring and victory against Barcelona on Saturday, who are three points ahead of Real, will convince the last doubters of his ability with Europe’s best team and the Spanish league title holders.
