In an exciting clash early morning on August 15th, Real Madrid defeated Atalanta 2-0 to lift the European Super Cup. The new number 9 for Real Madrid did not disappoint, scoring on his debut and helping the team defeat Atalanta 2-0 to claim their sixth European Super Cup. Mbappé’s start at Real Madrid couldn’t have been better.
Beiqingsport writes that this result was not unexpected, considering the clear gap in both paper strength and European experience between the two teams. Although Gian Piero Gasperini’s Italian team is known for playing unconventionally, they were simply outmatched against his compatriot Carlo Ancelotti. For Real Madrid, besides the goal of winning the trophy, the entire team was also working towards the integration of one man, Kylian Mbappé.
Mbappé’s abilities are unquestionable, but at Real Madrid, the position he will play and the role he will take on require time to solidify. In this match, Mbappé joined forces with the two Brazilian talents, Vinícius Júnior and Rodrygo, forming a formidable attacking trio. They are still finding their rhythm, and it remains unclear who will occupy the “arrowhead” position. However, as the new season progresses, everything will become clearer.
After winning the European Super Cup, Real Madrid president Florentino Pérez stated in an interview that Mbappé had made a great start to his time at Real Madrid. He said, “The fact that Mbappé scored on his Real Madrid debut will give him a lot of encouragement and help him have a good season. I can see that he is very happy, as he was so excited when he received the medal. I know that scoring on your debut for Real Madrid is not easy. He has now had a good start.”
On Monday morning, Real Madrid will face Mallorca away in the first round of La Liga. As the defending champions, “Los Blancos” will embark on a new journey. For Mbappé, new challenges await, and he is sure to attract even more attention.
