Vinicius is having fun, not Mbappé

There is something to smile about again. After the two slaps received against FC Barcelona (0-4) and AC Milan (1-3), Real Madrid returned to victory by winning against Osasuna (4-0) this Saturday during the 13th La Liga day.

This meeting was first marked by injuries in the first period to Rodrygo, Eder Militao and Lucas Vazquez, with great concern for the second, who could suffer from another rupture of a cruciate ligament. But on arrival, we can remember the great control of Real Madrid, in a one-sided match (18 shots to 2).

Mbappé remains silent

Real Madrid broke the deadlock at the end of the first period, with a nice number from Vinicius Jr (1-0, 34th), and the first goal of the season from Jude Bellingham, on a long ball from the young Raul Asencio, who entered the place of Militao (2-0, 42nd). The big man of the day was Vinicius Jr, who scored a hat-trick, first on a supersonic counter following a move by Lunin (3-0, 61st), then on a loss of ball exploited by Brahim Diaz (4-0, 68th).

And Kylian Mbappé in all this? He could have finished with one or two assists, if Vinicius had used his services better (48th, 65th). The Bondynois stood out with an impressive rush, which led to a good free kick, which he himself (badly) took (55th). He was easily caught by the Osasuna side, on a good serve (72nd). In the end, it was a match with zero goals and zero assists, while his team had boulevards in the second half. This will not remove doubts about him.
