Mbappé, the big surprise

La Liga awards an honorary title of “MVP” after each match (as in US sports, the distinction goes to a sponsor) and the star players of the Spanish championship are often highlighted. Not very serious in itself. Drink to the supporters the real Madrid There is absolutely no comment on Kylian Mbappé’s first match of the season, in the 14th year, after the 3-0 victory against Leganés, in the southern suburbs of the capital.

Mbappé found the net again after four matches without scoring, taking advantage of a perfect effort from Vinicius before half-time (43rd). He’s definitely the best player on the team. But it’s a relief for the French international, his performance is not reassuring. Carlo Ancelotti had decided to shift to the eye in order to give him a little confidence but, in addition to replacing « Vini » at the forefront, the captain of the Blues was not brilliant in his provocations with the ball at his feet.

Vinicius and Valverde are the best Mbappé

Vinicius was untenable, with 5 successful dribbles and a total of three great chances created, and would have deserved to be MVP of the game. Real’s other two scorers were also better on the pitch than Mbappé. A starter for Federico Valverde. Right side in the absence of Dani Carvajal and Lucas Vazquez, the Uruguayan midfielder shined on the field and scored Madrid’s second goal with a free kick taken under the wall (66th). Jude Bellingham, but the 3-0 victory in the match, was also achieved in a small match.

Real did the job against the 14th in Liga, despite this unconvincing replacement of Mbappé on the left of Vinicius, and took the opportunity to come back four lengths behind Barça, a leader who was hung up on Saturday in Vigo (2-2) . Eduardo Camavinga and his colleagues developed an XXL performance against Liverpool, Wednesday at Anfield. And Mbappé, if not excellent in the game, will have a good opportunity to score and make his team win during this great shock of the regular phase of the Champions League.
