Kylian Mbappé

Kylian Mbappé has publicly apologized after missing a crucial penalty in Real Madrid's 1-2 loss to Athletic Bilbao in their latest La Liga fixture.

"Tough result. A big mistake in a match where every detail matters. I take full responsibility for this. It’s a challenging period, but now is the best time to turn things around and show who I really am," the Frenchman wrote on Instagram, addressing fans and teammates alike.

Ancelotti Stands by His Star Player

Real Madrid head coach Carlo Ancelotti responded to the incident by defending Mbappé and emphasizing the importance of patience and support.

"I’m not going to judge a player’s performance based on a penalty kick. It’s part of football—sometimes you score, sometimes you don’t. Kylian is disappointed, but we move forward. Mistakes happen, and there’s nothing unusual about that. He needs time to fully adapt to the league. He’s scored many goals already and is determined to keep improving," said Ancelotti in his post-match remarks.

A Key Player Under Pressure

Since joining Real Madrid, Mbappé has taken on significant responsibility in key moments. While his penalty miss is a setback, his determination to bounce back and continue contributing to the team remains clear. With the support of Ancelotti and his teammates, the French international is expected to regain his rhythm and help Real Madrid in their title race.
