Scorer for the first time in more than a month on Sunday during Real Madrid's victory at Leganes, Kylian Mbappé was entitled to congratulations from the opposing captain, for whom the French striker has impeccable behavior.
He (finally) found the net. Mute for four matches in all competitions, Kylian Mbappé scored on Sunday at Leganes, where Real Madrid won 3-0 on the 14th day of La Liga. This 7th goal in the Spanish championship, and his 9th in all competitions, is certainly not the hardest of his career, since it was mainly thanks to an offering from Vinicius that he was able to open the scoring shortly before the break . But it does a lot of good for the captain of the Blues, who has been in turmoil for several weeks on and off the field.
The former Parisian, who was able to play in his favorite position, on the left flank, and will still have the opportunity to do so during the Merengue club's next matches due to Vinicius' injury, was then entitled to congratulations of his trainer. But also, more surprisingly, to those of an opponent: Sergio Gonzalez, the captain of Leganes, for Marca.
“A very nice attitude”
“Madrid has attackers who are among the best in the world,” said the 32-year-old defender. “We tried to cover Mbappé's spaces because we knew he was very dangerous in these situations.” Before discussing the behavior of the French attacker, irreproachable in his eyes.
“I want to highlight his attitude because it is very good. He is an example for a lot of kids watching, he had a great attitude and great gestures with us. There are players who are not an example on the field and Mbappé was one,” concluded Sergio Gonzalez. Which will not fail to delight, we imagine, the person concerned, eager to continue his momentum on Wednesday evening in Liverpool for the 5th day of the Champions League.
