Mbappe shines as Real Madrid secure victory on a memorable European night

After the match, he shared, "We are pleased with the victory tonight as it was a tough game, typical of the Champions League. Our goal was to kick off the campaign with a win. The competition has evolved and winning is crucial to secure swift qualification. Overall, it's a positive night for us. Our focus now shifts to the upcoming league match, where we aim to continue our winning streak at home this Saturday."

“The match was tough. They play well and we had trouble playing and bringing the ball out from the back. We had chances to score, but we started the second half really well. We put the pressure on, played our game and scored the first goal early. The game was box to box and they equalised. Then, all the Madridistas worked hard and we scored the second. Later, Endrick scored his goal and we won the game.”

On scoring in three consecutive games, Mbappe continued: “I can do more. I know I'm going to do more. Every game I feel better and now I'm scoring goals. I'm happy here.”

Endrick also scored late and Mbappe added: “The most important thing is to score a goal. He scored his goal and got away from the players. He's very young. He's 18. He gets his playing time and he scores his goals.”
