Since Real Madrid's loss to Mallorca (1-2) in La Liga, Kylian Mbappé has faced heavy criticism. On Tuesday night, the Frenchman delivered the perfect response against Bayern Munich (1-2) this Tuesday by finding the back of the net.

In a press conference, Alvaro Arbeloa praised the French international’s reaction. "I saw him fully involved in every aspect of the game, a real game-changer and a constant threat to Bayern’s defense. That’s the Mbappé we want to see—the Mbappé who wants to prove he’s the best player in the world," the Spanish coach told the media.

It must be said that Mbappé was a constant threat last night, but he was repeatedly denied by a brilliant Manuel Neuer.
