Kylian Mbappe has admitted he is finally relieved to score his first La Liga goals for Real Madrid.

The reigning champions go into the international break unbeaten so far in 2024/25, with two wins and two draws, but are four points behind league leaders Barcelona.

The main talking point during their 2-0 home win in La Liga against Real Betis centred on Mbappe’s late salvo, who scored twice in the final minutes to end his wait for a league goal in Madrid. Mbappe’s first three league appearances saw successive blanks in front of goal, which allowed him to set an unwanted record.

However, these goals allowed the Bondynois to free himself from a weight, and he could not hide his joy at the end of the match at the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu. “I was hoping to score in this legendary stadium, the best in the world” , reports Marca.

“Three games is not a lot for other players, but for me it is a lot. The club and the fans supported me, they gave me the confidence to give my all.” Mbappé will now fly to the French national team before returning to Real Madrid against Real Sociedad on September 14.
