Mbappe and Vinicius, made dust in the Spanish press » Line in Marca!

Real Madrid has only drawn one in the last three matches, 1-2 with Mallorca, 1-2 with Bayern and 1-1 with Girona, and the crisis it is going through, beyond the errors in the defense, seems to start primarily from the ineffectiveness of the attackers.

Against Girona, superstars Kylian Mbappe and Vinicius jr again left much to be desired. None managed to break the Catalan “lock”, the goal coming from a midfielder (Federico Valverde).

Alvaro Arbeloa is not worried about the lack of effectiveness of Kylian Mbappe and Vinicius jr

Asked if he was worried about their lack of effectiveness, coach Alvaro Arbeloa said “no, with the numbers they have. What can I say, they are two of the best four or five players in the world.

There is a lot to improve, especially against the bottom teams, which has more to do with collective effort than individual performance.”

But the journalists from Marca did not agree with the Spanish technician. In the box of the match, the Madrid newspaper gave a line to Mbappe and Vinicius. A qualification along the lines of “they didn't deserve their money” from the Germans at Bild.

Brand: “Mbappe, inconsistent, ineffective, angry. Vinicius gradually disappeared from the game”

Then, Marca took each of them for a pittance. “Mbappe? In the first half, a few flashes. Somewhat inconsistent in his appearances. In the second half, ineffective and angry at everyone. Led the final attack with several runs, runs and crosses, but to no avail. He risked being sent off, begging for a penalty“, the mentioned newspaper characterized the French striker.

Vinicius? “Very persistent in his attempt to break Girona's defensive 'wall'. Lots of dribbling but little danger. Somewhat hasty in his attempts to unbalance the defence. In the second half he gradually disappeared from the game. A very small threat given his usual abilities“, was the conclusion of the Spanish journalists.
