dazzling, Mbappé makes his comeback and allows Real Madrid to smash Las Palmas

That's it, he's back. Like the Phoenix who rises from the ashes, scorer in Real Madrid's last two matches against Barça in the Spanish Super Cup and Celta Vigo in the Copa del Rey, the captain of the French team confirmed his revival on Sunday at Santiago-Bernabéu, by scoring a double during the clear and easy victory of the Merengue, in La Liga, against Las Palmas (4-1).

On fire, the former PSG striker was quite simply in all the right moves, taking advantage of almost all of the White House's opportunities, being either at the start or at the finish of the action. While Casa Blanca was showered from the start – after only 30 seconds of play – by Fabio Silva and stubborn Canaris (1^e), “KM” first equalized for the Madrilenians, on a penalty collected by his friend Rodrygo (18^e).

The number 9 of the European champions subsequently spearheaded the attack leading to the second Merengue goal, signed by Brahim Diaz. Mbappé walked away with his double just before the break (36^e), taking a magnificent cross from his Brazilian friend Rodrygo. The French international could even have scored his first hat-trick in the legendary Real jersey if the goal had not been disallowed for offside (42^e).

Rodrygo, also on his feet against the Amarillos, completed the success of the locals (57^e), shortly before the hour mark. Two other achievements were refused by the VAR to the Madrilenians, who eased off in the second half, facing the 14^e championship team. Thanks to this convincing success, Real Madrid takes the lead in La Liga, ahead of its rival Atlético and FC Barcelona.

For his part, Mbappé is found and in full confidence. The former Parisian felt the danger on the pitch and was able to take full advantage of the absence of his teammate Vinicius Jr, on the left wing, who was suspended. To see if the “crack of Bondy” will continue to shine during the return of Auriverde, who (normally) recovers his position. In any case, the 2018 world champion, who now has 18 goals since the start of the season with the White House (including 12 in the championship), seems, once again, extraordinary.
