- The goals marked a significant milestone for Mbappé
Kylian Mbappé’s brace propelled Real Madrid to a victory over Real Betis in La Liga.
The French forward, who joined Madrid from Paris Saint-Germain this summer, netted his first two goals in the Spanish league.
Mbappé’s opener came after a clever backheel from Federico Valverde, while his second was a confidently converted penalty following a foul on Vinicius Jr.
The goals marked a significant milestone for Mbappé, who had been searching for his first La Liga goals after a scoreless run in his previous three matches.
Despite Betis’ early opportunities, Madrid dominated the match.
Mbappé himself had several chances before finally finding the net, while Eder Militao and Valverde also tested the Betis goalkeeper. Vinicius Jr. also narrowly missed with a shot that struck the post.
With this win, Real Madrid remain unbeaten in La Liga, although they trail Barcelona by four points.
Betis, on the other hand, have struggled to find their form, picking up just one point from their first three matches.
