Kylian Mbappe’s rocky start at Real Madrid intensified after his missed penalty contributed to a 2-0 defeat to Liverpool at Anfield. The 25-year-old, who joined Madrid from PSG on a free transfer last summer, failed to convert a crucial spot-kick at 1-0.
The loss frustrated Real Madrid fans, with one supporter dramatically burning Mbappe’s No. 9 shirt in a viral video, declaring their “hopes and support” for the forward were over. Despite scoring seven goals in 12 La Liga appearances this season, Mbappe has struggled to meet expectations in critical matches. Former Madrid and Liverpool star Steve McManaman criticized him on TNT Sports, stating, “Madrid needed Mbappe tonight, and he flattered to deceive.”
While Real Madrid sits second in La Liga, pressure mounts on manager Carlo Ancelotti following a 4-0 loss to Barcelona last month. Meanwhile, teammate Jude Bellingham defended Mbappe, emphasizing his immense pressure and backing him to deliver more significant moments for the club.
