Kylian Mbappe scored his first La Liga goals for Real Madrid, netting both in a 2-0 victory over Real Betis. The French forward's breakthrough included a brilliant assist from Federico Valverde and a late penalty, helping Madrid stay competitive with Barcelona in the league standings.
In a recent La Liga match, Kylian Mbappe finally found his scoring touch for Real Madrid, netting both goals in a 2-0 victory over Real Betis. After struggling to make an impact in the league following his debut against Atalanta in the UEFA Super Cup, Mbappe broke his goal drought with a superb finish. The French forward capitalized on an exceptional backheel assist from Federico Valverde to beat Real Betis goalkeeper Rui Silva.
Mbappe's performance didn’t stop there. He secured the win with a late penalty, awarded after Silva fouled Vinicius Jr. The victory marked Real Madrid’s second La Liga win of the season, helping them stay competitive with Barcelona, who remain unbeaten.
Despite an initial dry spell, with 24 shots taken and only 8 on target, Mbappe’s breakthrough is a significant boost for Real Madrid. The forward now prepares to rejoin the French national team for their upcoming Nations League fixtures against Italy and Belgium, aiming to carry his newfound form into international competition.
