French striker Kylian Mbappe affirmed that he is fully integrated at Real Madrid and can now play the way he wants against opponents. And, with 2 goals against Las Palmas, Mbappe is close to Robert Lewandowski in the Pichichi race.
Striker Kylian Mbappe shined brightly when he left his mark on Real Madrid’s 3 goals to help Los Blancos win 4-1 at home at the Bernabeu. Specifically, he scored 2 goals and assisted 1 goal, helping the home team come back against Las Palmas and officially usurp the top spot in the table from neighboring team Atletico.
“I’m really happy. I have adapted to the team and can play the way I want, connect with my teammates and express my own playing style. We all enjoy it. It’s normal for fans to be unhappy after we lost miserably to Barca in the Super Cup final. When you play for Real, you have to win every match.
What about the moment I pointed at the Real logo? It’s very simple. I want to say we must unite because there is still much to do to accomplish the goals. Unite, together, fight with Madridista for the titles ahead,” Mbappe said after the victory over Las Palmas.
With that brilliant form, Mbappe was given an absolute score of 10 by most sports sites. As for coach Carlo Ancelotti, after every goal of the French superstar, he punches his fist in the air to celebrate or hugs his son and assistant Davide outside the pitch. For Carletto, Mbappe is the best number 9 in the world today.
The double against Las Palmas helped Mbappe move closer to Lewy in the race to win the La Liga top scorer title this season. Currently, the French striker has 12 goals in 18 matches in the country’s highest tournament, while Lewandowsky has 16 goals in 19 matches. Mbappe is showing high form with 5 goals in the last 4 matches in all competitions.
