The French international striker from Real Madrid, who scored against Getafe on Sunday, received the support of his teammate Thibaut Courtois.
After his poor performance against Liverpool (2-0 defeat) in the Champions League on Wednesday, Kylian Mbappé, the French striker of Real Madrid, showed his best this Sunday during the success against Getafe (2-0) in La Liga . The Bondynois scored the break goal on a through ball from Jude Bellingham, deceiving the goalkeeper with a precise shot from outside the area.
If he still displays a lack of precision in the last gesture, Mbappé seemed more at ease on the left flank, his favorite position, in the absence of Vinicius Jr. On the occasion of Madrid's success, goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois affirmed his support for the former Parisian.
A message of hope for Mbappé's future at Real
“He's a great player, he has a lot of qualities and ultimately the most difficult goal to score was this one. It's like a ketchup bottle, you hit it and nothing comes out, then suddenly you hit it and everything comes out. It will be the same with him. He will score more goals, he works hard and we have to support him,” confided the Belgian goalkeeper in the mixed zone.
Courtois, who also had a complicated start in Madrid after his arrival in 2018, showed optimism about the future of the French captain at the club: “There is a lot of outside noise, he wants to score and sometimes, when you want too much, it doesn't come. You arrive at a new team, with the demands of Real, and you don't know what to expect. Sometimes it shows. The more we want, the less we do. It's about being calm, doing the easy things well and then doing the hard things well. And it will pay off, he will score a lot of goals. At first it was difficult for me too. »
