Kylian Mbappe could not have chosen a better time to score his first Hat Trick at home for Real Madrid than to put the whites in the last 16 of the Champions League when defeating Manchester City 6-3 in aggregate. Mbappe opened the scoring in the fourth minute of a 3-1 victory and proceeded to beat Manchester City with skilled touches and strong finishes on their way to an emphatic victory.
Playing like this, it is clear what Real Madrid’s The potential can be with MBAPPE and that is one of the best teams in the world. The three strikers of Vinicius JuniorMbappe and Rodrygo It has balance now that Mbappe adheres to the central areas instead of floating to the left and any of these players can damage a team if it is given space. It is a balance that few teams in the world can match and why, once again, whites are among the main contestants to win the Champions League.
That did not seem the case since Mbappe was slow in the integration of the club, but with six goals in his last four games of the Champions League, the former PSG man is up to the number nine on his back.
“I said it in press conferences, I didn’t come here to play badly. Fulfar my dream was one thing, but I want to play well, leave my mark and write history at Real Madrid,” Mbappe told Movistar after the game. “I knew I had to play with personality, and the adaptation period is over. Now, I have to show my quality.”
The objectives speak for themselves for MBAPPE with 28 in all competitions, but defeat City felt different. His first objective was a first -touch film to take advantage Ederson Be out of position to put Madrid ahead only four minutes.
For the second act of Mbappe, he was able to limit a team movement that involves Fed Valverde, Vini Jr. and Rodrygo, where City didn’t even know who to mark. This is a great example of what makes Madrid so dangerous with MBAPPE leading the line.
The French would save the best for the end, since the defense of the city closed it, but his hat trick would not be denied. While closing, the defense could not close quickly enough to stop him before a powerful end beat Ederson for another goal.
If this is the MBAPPE that the teams will regularly see that their adjustment period is over, the only team that can stop Real Madrid is themselves, what was expected when Mbappe joined in the summer.
