A year after opening his goals goals with Real Madrid in his first game, during the European Super Cup won against Atalanta, Kylian Mbappé made the nets tremble in the first match of the new Merengues season. The formation of Xabi Alonso received Osasuna, arrived at 9th in Liga last spring, Tuesday evening in Bernabéu, at the end of the first day of the championship.

Pichichi de Liga with 31 goals (which also offered him the title of European gold shoe), author of 44 achievements in total, Mbappé launched his season by transforming a penalty. The captain of the French team himself obtained the repair kick by making a hook on the right side of the surface, at the start of the second period, before marking in force (51st).

Vinicius and his teammates were not very dangerous in the first period and did not find the opening either after opening the scoring by Mbappé. The little Argentinian prodigy Franco Mastanuono, recruited for 45 million euros in River Plate, entered the place of Brahim Diaz (68th).

Tchouameni holder with Mbappé

The recruits Dean Huijsen (accompanied by Eder Militao due to the suspension of Antonio Rüdiger), Trent Alexander-Arnold and Alvaro Carreras made their liga debut with Real. Xabi Alonso had opted for a 4-3-3 (after its 3-5-2 not convincing at the Club World Cup) and Aurélien Tchouameni thus evolved before the defense with Federico Valverde and Arda Güler in relayers. Eduardo Camavonga was forfeited, just like Ferland Mendy.

Real continues with a trip to northern Spain to face the promoted Oviedo, Sunday (9:30 p.m.). Mbappé and his teammates will then receive Mallorca, before the first international window of the 2025-2026 season.
