Real Madrid Steadfast With Mbappé, Vinícius and Rodrygo
Real Madrid have just recorded their third consecutive victory, as they have scored a total of 14 goals in three games at the Santiago Bernabéu, demonstrating their attacking superiority over their opponents. Although they needed extra time to win the Copa del Rey, recent matches in La Liga and the Champions League have seen them secure victories in regulation time. The attacking trio of Mbappé, Vinícius and Rodrygo have been in impressive form.
All three players are keen to assert their importance following the 5-2 defeat to Barcelona in the Super Cup, hoping to discourage coach Ancelotti from adding a fourth midfielder in tight games as he seeks the balance he desires.
The first big test is on the horizon with a game against Atlético Madrid, but for now, the focus is on reviving title hopes through impressive goalscoring.
In the recent match against , in the absence of Vinícius, Mbappé took on the leading role and scored twice, becoming the focal point of Real Madrid’s attacks. This role was then shared by Rodrygo and Vinícius in the Champions League win over Salzburg, where both players scored twice in a 5-1 win that also included a goal from Mbappé.
The attacking trio are performing as expected, with Emilio Butragueño commenting after the Champions League match: “That’s the mark of our players; they have the ability to change the course of a game at any moment.” The team’s attacking quality has been particularly strong since mid-December.
