Frenchman Kylian Mbappe, the Real Madrid star, ended his fast from scoring in the La Liga championship, during the match against Real Betis, on Sunday evening in the fourth round of competitions, in the stronghold of the Merengue, the “Santiago Bernabeu” stadium.
Mbappe scored the first goal for the Merengues in the 67th minute, as he received a deep pass from Fede Valverde to go one-on-one with goalkeeper Rui Silva and shoot to his right, which was the Frenchman’s first goal in the La Liga tournament, after a fast that lasted 3 matches.
It was only 8 minutes before he scored the second goal from a penalty kick, awarded to Vinicius, before Carlo Ancelotti replaced him in the 84th minute with Luka Modric coming on.
Real Madrid enters the match, with its eyes on the three points, in light of the team's poor start in La Liga, after two draws against Mallorca and Las Palmas, and a single victory against Real Valladolid.
The Merengues have 5 points in fifth place, while Real Betis are in 17th place with only two points.
