Kylian Mbappe’s stellar performance propelled the defending champions of La Liga, Real Madrid, to a triumphant victory over Real Betis, extending their unbeaten streak to an impressive 36 matches in the competition.
Despite dominating possession, the Los Blancos did not have complete control over the game. However, the dynamic partnership between Vinicius Junior and Mbappe nearly proved fruitful as the Frenchman came close to receiving a splendid through ball from the Brazilian in the first half, which ultimately ended goalless.
Mbappe showcased his brilliance in the 67th minute of the second half, capitalizing on Federico Valverde’s flick to secure his goal of the season and a crucial second goal for the defending champions.
Real Madrid commenced the season with a performance that fell below expectations, yet they currently hold the second position in the league as they approach the international break.
