Kylian Mbappé is back! After complicated first months in the Spanish capital, the French international (86 selections, 48 goals) now shines with a thousand lights. Saturday evening, during the trip of his family to Osasuna, the former striker of Paris Saint-Germain thus confirmed his very beautiful current arrangements by opening the scoring in a position of real number 9. Taking advantage of a center of Federico Valverde, the Bondy's native launched hers perfectly by cutting the trajectory at the first post. Unfortunately for him, this new achievement – the 17th in Liga, the 24th all competitions – will not have prevented the Madrilenians from letting go of two new precious points in the title race.
Reduced to ten after the expulsion of Jude Bellingham, the Madrid club finally conceded the equalization of Ante Budimir after a penalty granted to the locals for a fault of Eduardo Camavonga. Scandalized, once again, by arbitral decisions, the Merengues are also worried about the treatment reserved for their number 9. Only a few days after the trip to Espanyol Barcelona (0-1) where the French of 26 years had been the victim of a violent tackle by Carlos Romero who should have been punished for an expulsion, KM9 was once again targeted on the lawn of El Sadar. In a sparkling form and author of a new high-flying performance, the ex-player of AS Monaco pushes, in fact, his opponents to the fault. Issue ? These acts of anti -challenge remain, for the time being, far too unpunished.
Mbappé, the new target of opposing defenses!
On the Pamplona side, Mbappé had to deal with the charges of Cruz, the aggressiveness of Jorge Herrando, the provocations of Alejandro Catena and even the daring admonitions of the coach of Osasuna, Vicente Moreno, exasperated by the behavior (however justified) of the right -hander of 1m78. Taking advantage of a very permissive arbitration, the Basques did not, anyway, not prayed to stop, by all possible means, the Madrid star. Tanciating from all sides, KM9 ultimately only benefited from two faults in its favor. What to give ideas to other Liga teams in the coming weeks? Difficult for the moment to say it but Real Madrid is concerned, for its part, of this trend. If the main interested party has so far refused to take offense at these constant decisions (he had not spoken after the tackle received against Espanyol and once again remained silent this Saturday in Pamplona), Real intends to counterattack.
This Sunday, Reader As such, as such, that the Merengues plan to go to the headquarters of the Technical Committee of Arbitrators on Monday to listen to the audios of the match against Espanyol. A meeting that promises to be heated and during which Madrid leaders will certainly express their frustration. In addition to the red card inflicted on Jude Bellingham and the various disputed decisions suffered in the last matches, Real could also mention the case of the French scorer. At the same time, Real Madrid, which has only taken two small points out of the last nine possible, could lose its heads from the ranking in the event of FC Barcelona victory against Rayo Vallecano at the end of the 24th day of Liga.
