Author of his first two goals in La Liga with Real Madrid, Sunday against Betis Sevilla, Kylian Mbappé never doubted.
It was with a smile that Kylian Mbappé returned to the French team on Monday at Clairefontaine. The day before, he had finally opened his Liga account with Real Madrid, scoring twice at the Santiago Bernabeu against Betis (2-0). A deliverance for the new Merengue number 9, who had just put together three rather messy performances against Mallorca, Valladolid and Las Palmas.
A relief? Not really. Because the striker and captain of the Blues is not a player who doubts. After scoring against Atalanta on his debut with the White House, in the UEFA Super Cup, the former Parisian had no reason to worry. A confidence in him confirmed by his teammate Brahim Diaz, whose entry into the game was important on Sunday.
“That’s Kylian”
In an interview with Madrid Xtrathe Madrid attacking midfielder revealed a discussion he had with Kylian Mbappé before his double. “Mbappé told me: ‘I’m not worried, it’s going to happen’. And then he scored two goals. That’s Kylian”confided the Spanish international, flourishing in Carlo Ancelotti’s collective. “We are a great team, we support each other.”
It is now up to the 2018 world champion to continue playing in the national team. Author of a Euro 2024 “failed”by his own admission, the French number 10 has some things to make up for with the French public, who will be waiting for him in the two upcoming matches against Italy (September 6 in Paris) and Belgium (September 9 in Lyon), as part of the Nations League.
