At the heart of the news and under fire from criticism after being cited by the Swedish press in a case of alleged rape in Stockholm earlier this week, when he preferred not to take part in the team gathering from France, Kylian Mbappé (25 years old) had returned to training with Real Madrid after his Scandinavian getaway. But after his hectic week, the captain of the Blues was aligned in a two-man attack with Vinícius Júnior and Jude Bellingham in support on the pitch of Celta de Vigo, Saturday evening (2-1).
And if Real Madrid did not convince greatly during this part and even suffered during the second half, Kylian Mbappé fulfilled his mission and gave the best response on the pitch. Taking advantage of a high recovery from Eduardo Camavinga, Kylian Mbappé opened the scoring with a sublime strike which ended in the left corner of Vicente Guaita. A superb goal that the French striker celebrated at length, full of rage and very happy.
Kylian Mbappé finally delights
Marca also explained that his magnificent goal showed that the French striker was finally in full confidence at the moment and that the connection with Vinicius Jr was more and more interesting: “It’s easy for him to reach 40 or 50 goals this season with Real Madrid with an average of 0.6 goals per game. It’s already his 8th goal since the start of the season.”. Same thing for A.S.who greets “a performance made in PSG, which we were not yet used to seeing at Real Madrid”.
“Vinícius and Mbappé have improved their physical condition and their understanding on the pitch. They started today’s match very well with two spectacular goals and we must continue like thisexplained Carlo Ancelotti at a press conference. You can see he feels fresh, he looks like a different player after the international break“. A good rehearsal and enough to put the controversies on hold before his very first Clasico against FC Barcelona, next Saturday.
