Facing Barca at Camp Nou last season, and making points at the Parc des Princes + killing Real Madrid this season, Mbappe's Champions League history has added another glittering stroke.
With 4 successful attempts and 4 shots from six feet, Mbappe proved himself to be the biggest defender of the Paris attack and perhaps well prepared for the Landing at the Bernabeu.
01. Carvajal's heart is bitter! Mbappe stared at him and rushed
a. Paris lack a striker: Mbappe's cross did not release the advantage
Paris used Pereira to block the ribs at the defensive end to protect the centre-back flank, leaving Vinicius's flank breakthrough without threat. On the offensive end, Messi and Verratti control the midfield, and Paris firmly controls the ball and constantly attacks.
Mbappe was on the right side of the protrusion and kept trying to hit Carvajal. Whether it is superior in strength or speed, the Spanish right-back is really bitter.
Paris were in the attacking position in the first half, and when Mbappe pulled right to the wing to pick up the ball, there was still a missing striker in the middle.
So much so that most of the time, it was Verratti and Di Maria who returned to the box, but the reception in front of the goal was average.
Mbappe was visibly superior in his power when facing Carvajal, so his opponents did not dare to stick to it. Mbappe has the ball to go to the outside line and can cross, and the ball can shoot directly into the inside line.
This time Mbappe's cross was sent to the middle of the penalty area, and Di Maria flew away in the face of an unguarded opportunity. He is not in good shape this game, otherwise Paris's advantage will be even greater.
b. Mbappe repeatedly punched Carvajal: hit the opponent early
We can't say carvajal is poorly defended, and his replacement Vazquez is obviously even less defensive.
However, Carvajal lost 3 of his 6 1-on-1 matches, 1 penalty and 2 (basically against Mpop). I have to say that the lack of protection from his teammates, Carvajal, is really miserable.
Perhaps in Ancelotti's view, he still attaches great importance to Messi, so there are almost no wingers or midfielders to protect Carvajal in the whole game, and more often let the defensive forces concentrate on Messi.
As a result, too much room was left for Mbappe, and as a result, he made Carvajal suffer.
You can't blame Carvajal for not getting into Mbappe's position, losing both speed and strength, and Carvajal has tried his best. His ability to limit Mbappe to a left-footed shot was already the best result.
The same is true of Kylian Kylian Mbappe's penalty in the second half, with Real Madrid never having a winger or midfielder on the defensive end. Carvajal's helper is the centre-back behind, but once Mbappe has enough space to take the ball and fully adjusts the active starting speed, there are too few places behind the people to help.
Carvajal's tackle this time led to a penalty award that was not rational, as Mbappe's cross from the outside was less threatening. The problem is that Kavajal is constantly "violent" by Mbappe, causing him to have a hot head that is understandable.
02. Paris has a big advantage in this game: Mbappe can score more abundantly
A. Mbappe's scoring method is slightly single: the goal is not good enough
According to this statistic, Paris is far ahead of the goal 21-3, and the expected number of goals is 1.9 to 0.3. Mbappe's scoring methods are still slightly single when the team is playing around the opponent.
One of the problems with Real Madrid's defensive end is that when Kylian Mbappe goes to the outside line, it lacks the protection density of the front and back layers.
This time Modric moved to the back of Carvajal in time, so even if Mbappe successfully started, there was no room for incision in the follow-up, and the chances of him choosing to penetrate the cross were not great.
In addition, when Mbappe goes to the middle and his teammates play a flanking attack opportunity and want to cross or cross the ball to find him, Mbappe's scoring efficiency will be lower.
There are examples of this kind of snatching in front of goal, kylian Mbappe's goal, but not enough.
Looking at this attack again, Neymar took the ball on his back to Messi and interjected, and doubled with Kylian Mbappe. But Messi's cross was given to him, and Mbappe tried to reach out and fail to touch it.
Overall, Mbappe's biggest improvement over the years has been the observation of the goal when shooting, and the movement of feet on the inside and outside lines with the ball. However, he has not made much progress in more versatile scoring methods such as headers and grabbing points, and too much focus on counter-attack acceleration may be one of the reasons why he wants to leave Paris and put pressure on himself to seek a breakthrough.
b. Kylian Mbappe's passing on the offensive end: cool enough, slightly underfoot
Mbappe's offensive efficiency in this game is very high, whether it is the shooting accuracy rate, the passing success rate (thanks to a lot of one-on-one impacts), and the pass success rate are very good.
One of Mbappe's big strengths is that he's calm-headed, he's fast, but he can observe his teammates before or after acceleration. Mbappe can always send some good return passes to Messi, which is also the reason, but unfortunately Messi's shot did not yield anything this time.
Mbappe's problem is that he is still a little less enthusiastic in terms of his passing imagination and acumen. This time on the counter-attack, met Messi's straight ball, Mbappe went to the flank of the penalty area to cut inside, trying to pass back to Messi, but was intercepted by Kroos.
03. Conquest of Real Madrid in World War I? Mbappe is ready for the landing at the Bernabeu
a. Real Madrid's defensive deployment is not good: Kylian Mbappe's speed has been fully utilized
In this game, Real Madrid was in poor form at the offensive end because of Benzema's poor form, and Vinicius was limited by tactics, so it was difficult for them to threaten the Paris backfield, and also allowed Verratti to fully display his offensive talents.
His partnership with Messi has given Paris a steady stream of offensive creativity. Neymar came off the bench to give Paris more momentum to attack. In the case of the team's offensive creativity, Mbappe also got a lot of opportunities, but also by showing his talent to let the team win.
Real Madrid are defending with a winger on the defensive, but it is difficult to gain a foot advantage against Verratti and Messi on the middle road.
Once the Paris midfielder duo dispatches the ball, Real Madrid's midfielder can only be exhausted.
In this wave of attack, Messi first attracted 3 players to defend and then split the ball, and then gave way to the left. Real Madrid thought Paris would return the ball to Messi, and Verratti went directly to Ashraf to connect Mbappe.
Because on the defensive end, Most of Real Madrid's attention is still on Messi, so this time There is no one on the line of Verratti's pass ashraf.
Mbappe's advantage is that he moves quickly and turns quickly, which is a great threat with a direct shot.
After Neymar's appearance, the problem of how Real Madrid effectively allocate resources on the defensive end is even more serious. This time, when Neymar carried the ball, Vazquez was the first to top, and the Brazilian's heel passed to Mbappe.
By the time Vazquez came back, Mbappe was fully prepared to take off in an instant. The lack of layering on the real madrid defensive end was exposed, and the somewhat stupid position of center-back Militang was like escorting Mbappe, and also ushered in the moment of the new king's ascension to the throne at the Parc des Princes in Paris.
b. Defeating Real Madrid in World War I? Is Mbappe ready to go to the Bernabeu/
Kylian Mbappe's outstanding performance will bring him closer and closer to signing with Real Madrid. Although Paris offered a contract extension that was higher than Messi's annual salary, the annual salary and signing fee given by Real Madrid were equally staggering.
More importantly, la Liga's daily training is of a high standard for polishing technical details, which is also where Mbappe needs to improve. His continued stay in Ligue 1 is not necessarily the best option.
Coupled with Real Madrid's influence, mbappe would be a good opportunity to become the top card at the Bernabeu if they want to win the Ballon d'Or.
Conclusion:
Whether Paris Saint-Germain and Mbappe can renew their contracts or not, at least the immediate interests are the same. Both the team and Kylian Mbappe will be eager to continue to score and win at the Bernabeu, to bring themselves to a more favorable position by winning the Champions League.
Will 2022 be the peak of Mbappe's career? The elimination of Real Madrid may be just the beginning, but it should never be the end. After a bland performance at the European Championship, Mbappe needs to come up with more convincing goals and wins to make himself the leader of football in the new era.
