Real Madrid fans experienced a rollercoaster of emotions during the thrilling 3-2 victory against Atalanta in Bergamo. Despite the crucial win keeping their hopes alive in the revamped tournament format, injuries to key players, including Kylian Mbappé, have raised concerns.
Mbappé, who left the pitch in the second half due to a suspected thigh injury, will undergo tests to determine the severity. Manager Carlo Ancelotti provided some reassurance post-match, stating the injury “doesn’t look serious,” though the French star had to be substituted after experiencing discomfort in his hamstring.
“It was a demanding game,” Ancelotti explained, highlighting the physical challenges posed by Atalanta. Despite setbacks, the victory boosts Real Madrid’s chances of advancing, with hopes high for Mbappé’s quick recovery.
