Kylian Mbappé made a great debut in the jersey of Real Madrid. He scored a goal for the team for the first time and got a taste of the title.

Real Madrid won the Super Cup for a record sixth time by defeating Atalanta by 2-0 last night in the UEFA Super Cup in Warsaw, Poland. Barcelona and AC Milan have also won the Super Cup five times each. Federico Valverde scored the other goal for Real.

Match highlights

Real was not playing well despite having several chances to score in the first half against Atalanta, who won the Europa League last season. Luck was no help either. Rodrygo’s shot hit the crossbar from 10 yards before the break. Real Madrid got their first goal in 59 minutes.

Uruguayan midfielder Valverde scored from Vinicius Junior’s pass. Last season’s Champions League winner Real Madrid did not have to wait long for the second goal. In the 68th minute, the anointed Mbappe scored his first goal in the jersey of Real Madrid and the second goal for the team. The French star scored with a right-footed shot from Jude Bellingham’s pass.

Kylian Mbappe’s after match statement

How important the first goal for Real, the first title is to Mbappe, it became clear in his words at the end of the match. Mbappe told the media, “I had a great night, This jersey, this badge and playing for the fans – I’ve been waiting for this moment for a long time.”

Mbappe was asked whether it is possible to set the goal of 50 goals in the first season for Real. His reply was, ‘We are Real Madrid players, I have no boundaries. Also If I can score 50 goals, I will. But the important thing is to win and improve as a team. Because, we will win as a team.’

Real Madrid’s coach Carlo Ancelotti

Carlo Ancelotti won the 14th title as the coach of Real Madrid. This is the joint record for most titles won as Real Madrid coach. Real’s coach Miguel Munoz has a record of winning 14 titles.

But Ancelotti could not be happy even after winning the title. The Italian coach said, “Mbappe has the ability to score many goals. We are now looking for balance in the team, which we did not find today.”

Mbappe played between the forward line in the debut match. Vinicius Jr. played on the left, Rodrygo on the right. However, Ancelotti picked up Mbappe in the 83rd minute. Defending champion Real Madrid will start the new season of La Liga by facing Real Mallorca next Sunday.
