La Liga: Mbappe, Bellingham Score As Real Madrid Win
Kylian Mbappé made some peace with Real Madrid’s fans. Mbappé scored in Madrid’s 2-0 win over Getafe in the Spanish league on Sunday to help ease the pressure on the France star. Mbappé, who has been criticized by some supporters because of his disappointing performances since joining the Spanish powerhouse this season, found the net in the 38th minute to seal Madrid’s victory at the Santiago Bernabeu stadium. Mbappé was coming off a lackluster outing — which included a missed penalty kick — against Liverpool in the Champions League on Wednesday. Jude Bellingham, also the target of some fans’ criticism for recent poor play, had put Madrid ahead at the Bernabeu by converting a 30th-minute penalty. He also assisted in Mbappé’s goal — a well-placed low shot from outside the area.
