"We thought we wouldn't see anything like Cristiano, but he's on his way. We're very lucky to have him. He's the best player in the world right now. Like I said, Cristiano's performance seemed otherworldly, and Kylian still has a long way to go, but he has the talent to follow in his footsteps. Why not surpass him? If anyone can, it's Kylian."
"Madrid had to wait to break the deadlock after an uninspiring first-half performance, with Mbappe, Arda Guler, and debutant David Jimenez all spurning chances, while Valencia threatened at the other end through Arnaut Danjuma. Alvaro Carreras finally opened the scoring in the 65th minute with a brilliant individual effort at the near post. And Mbappe sealed the points in stoppage time, coolly finishing off Brahim Diaz's set-up to take Madrid within a point of leaders Barcelona following their commanding win over Mallorca on Saturday."
