A first goal in a month after another non-call-up to the French team. This Sunday, Kylian Mbappé found the net against Leganés (3-0). A goal offered on a plate by Vinicius Junior, but a goal nonetheless, which allowed the Madrilenians to get going before the break.
Enough to launch Carlo Ancelotti’s men, who won the match thanks to two other goals from Federico Valverde and Jude Bellingham. “I started well, with pace and in a different position,” reacted Mbappé, aligned on the left on Sunday evening.
“I can play in different positions and I will play while giving my best. This is the story of my career: playing on the right, in the center, on the left… Above all, I want to play well and score a lot of goals,” he added, in the vein of what he had said on the day of his presentation in Madrid.
“I have trained well in recent weeks”
This goal comes especially after a very disrupted start to autumn for Kylian Mbappé, between very disappointing sporting performances, absences from Blues gatherings and a widely commented trip to Stockholm. “I have trained well in recent weeks with the young players from Castilla. It felt good to run with them, to train. And it showed today. I feel good physically! », Said the former PSG player.
Magnificently served by Vinicius on his goal, Mbappé spoke about the relationship he is building with the recent runner-up in the Ballon d’Or. “I have a very good relationship with Vini, as with all the Real Madrid players. We are ready to play a lot of matches together and win a lot of titles. »
In any case, Real had a great operation this Sunday. Thanks to their victory, the Merengues return to four points behind Barça, who conceded a draw against Vigo after their defeat against Real Sociedad before the break.
