Kylian Mbappé’s first match with Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabéu stadium ended in victory. The Madrid footballers won 3-0 on Sunday, August 25 against Valladolid, on the second day of La Liga, the Spanish championship. After seven years at PSG, the captain of the Blues was making his big debut on the Bernabéu pitch, in his new Real jersey, and he was rather discreet.
It’s an understatement to say that he was expected by the Santiago Bernabéu crowd. While Kylian Mbappé received a warm welcome, he was rather disappointing despite two clear chances, with two shots on target. Adrian, a Real Madrid fan, is still satisfied: “He played very well. It’s the first game, he needs time to adapt. Next time it will be better, I’m sure, and he will score a lot of goals this season.”
Antonio, for his part, came specially with his son Pablo to see Kylian Mbappé’s debut at the Bernabéu. For this Madrid supporter, who lived in Geneva, there is no rush. “He lacks rhythm compared to the team. We can see that he doesn’t have that ‘feeling’ yet. I think there’s a bit of pressure, he wants to score goals.”believes this supporter.
“It will come, no one doubts its quality. It is truly one of the best.”

“There was a desire to see him score and have a really good match. That wasn’t the case, but it will happen.”he continues. Kylian Mbappé can therefore do better. He was replaced at the very end of the match, without having scored. The Bernabéu public hopes to see him score this first goal in his new garden on Sunday, September 1, against Betis Seville.
