Beaten by Barça in the Spanish Super Cup final (3-2), the Real Madrid players were in no mood to celebrate. And especially not Kylian Mbappé.
Came on as a substitute without scoring, Kylian Mbappé was unhappy. The player even cut the ceremony short. According to several Spanish media outlets, the French striker asked his teammates to head straight back to the locker room and not form the guard of honor for FC Barcelona.
A Controversial Gesture After a Tense Clásico
Clearly irritated, Mbappé did not want to linger for the Catalan celebrations. An “unsportsmanlike gesture” according to the Spanish press, which has sparked a small controversy after an already very tense Clásico.
❌ Mbappé a demandé à ses coéquipiers de ne pas faire la traditionnelle haie d’honneur aux joueurs du FC Barcelona.
