Real Madrid lost at Bilbao this Wednesday in La Liga (2-1), at the end of a match marked by another missed penalty from Kylian Mbappé.

In the eye of the storm for several weeks, especially after his missed penalty in the Champions League against Liverpool, Kylian Mbappé has received the support of Carlo Ancelotti, as well as his teammates at Real Madrid. However, this did not completely cure him. Criticized from all sides, the Blues striker is ill on a sporting level. And he will still be for a while because this Wednesday during the advanced meeting of the 19th day of La Liga in Bilbao, he sank once again. In the second half, “Kyky” fell back into trouble when he had an equalizer at San Mames.

Antonio Rüdiger was fouled during an aerial duel, leading the referee to point to the penalty spot. The alternation of penalty kick takers at Real Madrid led the former Parisian to appear against Julen Agirrezabala. A duel won by the Basque goalkeeper (69th), gone to his left, as Caoimhin Kelleher had done in Liverpool a week earlier. Dejected, Kylian Mbappé nevertheless tried to catch up. He was at the origin of the equalizer snatched by Jude Bellingham, opportunist in the area after a strike from the Frenchman pushed back in the axis (1-1, 78th). Insufficient, however.

Valverde in the middle of a nightmare with Mbappé

But they barely had time to savor this return to the scoreboard when the Merengues conceded a gag goal. Guilty of a surprising loss of ball, Federico Valverde literally gave victory to Gorka Guruzeta (2-1, 80th). An achievement synonymous with success and the seventh match without defeat in La Liga for the Basques, 4th in the championship. They are four points behind Real Madrid (33 points), runner-up to Barça, four points behind the Catalan club.
