“A very important and spectacular goal,” recalls Ancelotti
The Belgian goalkeeper of Real Madrid assures that the Frenchman's will “is important”. “Sometimes it's like a bottle with stuff in it, sometimes you tap it comes out just a little bit, then all of a sudden it all comes out. I think it's going to be the same with him, that all of a sudden , it's going to happen and he's going to score lots of goals like he did in Paris, in Monaco and with the French team. He was very good today, he created chances, he went into space. , he defended well if he continues to do so. We're sure it's going to be good.”
Carlo Ancelotti delivered the same positive speech as his player and believes that Mbappé scored an “important” and spectacular goal. “He played very well.
