Kylian Mbappe hits new low, misses back-to-back penalties for Real Madrid

Kylian Mbappe’s highly publicised move to Real Madrid in June, ended a seven-year transfer saga. But the move hasn't worked according to the club's plan, with the French forward in poor form. Last week, Mbappe came under fire after he missed a penalty in his side’s 0-2 defeat vs Liverpool in the Champions League. He stepped up to take the spot-kick once again for Madrid on Wednesday, against Athletic Club.

But the Frenchman missed his penalty once again as Real Madrid crashed to a 1-2 defeat. Bilbao took the lead via Alejandro Remiro in the 53rd-minute, and then Mbappe missed the penalty, which could have levelled proceedings.

Jude Bellingham equalised for Madrid in the 78th-minute but their celebrations were short-lived as Gorka Guruzeta scored a late winner for Bilbao in a 2-1 victory.
