After scoring last weekend for Real Madrid, Kylian Mbappé can't seem to shake off the ghosts of his Champions League miss against Liverpool, where he failed to convert a crucial penalty. Although the French forward broke his dry spell by scoring against Athletic Bilbao, he missed another penalty in a vital LaLiga match.

The mistake came at a critical moment: Real Madrid was trailing, and Mbappé had already seen an earlier goal disallowed. In the 69th minute, he had the chance to level the score from the penalty spot, but his shot was saved by goalkeeper Agirrezabala, keeping Bilbao in the lead.

A week to forget

This marks Mbappé's second missed penalty in less than a week, both in decisive moments for Real Madrid. He now holds the dubious distinction of being the LaLiga player with the most missed penalties this season—a worrying stat for the club's marquee signing. The Frenchman continues to struggle to find his rhythm under Carlo Ancelotti, during a week filled with frustration in key moments for the Los Blancos. Can Mbappé rediscover his best form?
