In a key match in the 19th round of La Liga that ended in the early morning of December 5, Beijing time, Real Madrid lost 1-2 away to Biba, ending its three-game winning streak, and one less game was 4 points away from Barcelona at the top of the table. After the game, Mbappe, who missed the penalty, posted an apology on social media.
Mbappe was disappointed and wrote in English: "It's a bad result, a huge mistake in a game where the details can make the difference, and I take full responsibility for that. It's a tough time, but it's also the perfect time to change things and show who I really am.ā
It is not surprising that the ashamed Mbappe specially issued an apology, and his performance in this game was indeed too bad. In the 68th minute of the game, teammate Toni Rudiger worked hard to earn an equaliser for the team, but the penalty was easily missed by Mbappe. This is the second time Mbappe has missed a penalty in three games in a week, and the angle and direction of the two penalties are the same.
Not only that, in the 60th minute, Mbappe also faced most of the empty goals, and the volley was easily saved by the Biba goalkeeper. According to statistics, Mbappe missed two great opportunities with three shots on goal in this campaign. And in La Liga this season, Mbappe has missed 13 major chances and is the only player to have wasted more than 10 major chances.
Since joining Real Madrid, Mbappe has contributed 10 goals and 2 assists in 20 games, although the statistics are good, but he frequently wasted scoring opportunities and missed penalties, which made more and more Real Madrid fans lose patience with him.
