Traveling last Sunday to Elche, Real Madrid failed to win and settled for a share of the points (2-2, 13th day of La Liga). Already silent two weeks earlier against Rayo Vallecano (0-0), Kylian Mbappé also failed to find the fault against Elche. Appearing tense, the French striker also received a yellow card at the end of the match, while he was speaking to the referees. But the images have since been dissected in Spain and some media are said to have identified insults made by the player.
It is more precisely DAZN Spain which threw a wrench into the problem this Monday. The media posted a message on its social networks with a video of the sequence. On the images from beIN Sports, broadcaster in France, it is also possible to read
“You bastard, go.”on the lips of the Bondynois.
Words that the international tricolor would have pronounced three times, without the recipient of these sweet words being truly identified. In the meantime, the fact that the words were said in French allowed the Madrilenian to calmly return to the locker room immediately. But in Spain, the question is whether or not the League’s disciplinary committee will take up the matter.
Kylian Mbappé hopes to regain his effectiveness
In La Liga, Real Madrid is still the leader, but its two consecutive draws now place it under direct threat from FC Barcelona which has returned to a very small point thanks to its current series of three victories in a row. Real’s security cushion has melted like snow in the sun and all this adds to the growing tension around Xabi Alonso. The choices and results of the Merengue coach are debated and his place could be threatened.
To avoid this, Real Madrid would be well advised to pull themselves together on Wednesday, during their trip to Greece to face Olympiakos (9 p.m., 5th day of the Champions League). Kylian Mbappé hopes to regain his effectiveness in front of goal.
