Real Madrid forward Kylian Mbappe scored a penalty at the end of the La Liga match against Villarreal (2:0).

As the Real Madrid striker left the Estadio de la Ceramica last night, he was asked if the penalty had been in the style of Antonina Panenki something to do with Brahim Diaz. In the recent African Cup of Nations final, the Moroccan missed a penalty kick in the last seconds of the match against Senegal, hitting it with a “panenka”.

Mbappé, well aware of what was being asked of him, said: “Yes, I fully support him.”

Mbappe’s decision to dedicate the Panenka-style penalty to Brahim sparked mixed reactions from fans.

Some understand it and see it as a noble gesture towards a teammate in difficulty, while others see it as a real mockery: scoring a goal that the Moroccan failed to score and then dedicating it to him, reminding him of the failure.

In the match of the 21st round of the Spanish championship, Real Madrid won away against Villarreal with a score of 2:0.

Scored with a brace Kylian Mbappe. He scored in the 47th minute and also from a penalty in the 90+2′.

Real Madrid has 51 points and is in the lead, but Barcelona (49 points) has the game in hand. Villarreal is 4th with 41 points.

Bayern ahead Harry Kane he commented on the team’s first defeat of the season in the Bundesliga. In the 19th round the Munich team lost 1:2 at home to Augsburg.

Kane said:

We were a little low on energy. We weren’t agile enough with the ball and we have to give credit to the opponents, who increased the pressure on us and made our task more difficult.

He also added that Bayern “has no time for despair” and that this “defeat will not define the current season”.
