Kylian Mbappé continues to go through a period of uncertainty, marked by a goal drought and a Real Madrid team that has yet to find its best form in the Champions League. In a crucial match against Liverpool, the spotlight was on the French striker, who had the chance to equalize the game with a penalty, but surprisingly, he missed.

A Penalty to Forget

The mistake happened in the 61st minute, just ten minutes after Alexis Mac Allister put Liverpool ahead with a stunning goal. Mbappé, as usual, stepped up confidently to take the penalty, but his shot didn’t live up to expectations. Lacking conviction, the ball was saved by Caoimhin Kelleher, the backup goalkeeper for Liverpool, who became the hero by denying Mbappé’s attempt.

This miss was a big blow to Real Madrid’s morale, allowing Liverpool to maintain their momentum. Just ten minutes later, Jürgen Klopp’s team extended their lead with a header from Cody Gakpo after a corner kick, leaving Carlo Ancelotti’s side with very little chance of a comeback.

A Match to Forget

Mbappé’s performance was well below expectations. Throughout the match, he registered only one shot on target, three successful dribbles out of six, and two offsides, making for a very underwhelming performance. So far in the Champions League, Mbappé has only scored one goal, adding to the growing doubts about his impact in this tournament. Without a doubt, this was a match to forget for Mbappé in the Real Madrid shirt, as he failed to make his mark in a key Champions League clash.
