End of series for Kylian Mbappé. The star player of Real Madrid and captain of the France team is in quite incredible momentum this season since he has scored in 11 consecutive matches with the Merengues and the France team. Over this period (from September 5 to October 19), the captain of the Blues compiled 15 goals and four assists!
Until then, author of a double against OM (2-1) and a hat-trick against Kairat Almaty (0-5), Mbappé failed to shake the net during the clash against Juventus, Wednesday evening at the Bernabéu. A single goal from Jude Bellingham, on a ball pushed back by the post, allowed the Merengues to win four days before a Clasico at home against Barça.
The “Kyks” did not convert a big opportunity before half-time, stumbling on Michele Di Gregorio, author of a header (40th). Mbappé then offered a big opportunity to Eder Militao (43rd) then, unlike Vinicius (replaced in the 84th minute), the Bondynois remained on the field until the end, offering himself one last attempt (91st). In vain, he left the field rather disappointed.
Real tied with PSG
Real, however, obtained a narrow victory. On their rare opportunities, Igor Tudor's players could have cooled the Madrid public. Thibaut Courtois saved his team on a huge counter from Dusan Vlahovic (49th). At the end of the match, Loïs Openda, who came on as Jonathan David, was unable to convert a good situation in the Turin area (85th).
With nine points, Real are one of the top five teams but are ahead of PSG, Bayern, Inter and Arsenal, who have a better goal difference. The fourth day offers a superb shock at Anfield against Liverpool, in two weeks. Juventus has only two points and will have to start against Sporting at home.
