As: Mbappe carried Real Madrid s forward alone, the team scored 10 goals in 8 games
"As" published an article discussing Real Madrid's current problems, saying that the team relies too much on Mbappe's offensive firepower.
Real Madrid won consecutive victories in La Liga and Champions League at the beginning of the season, but all of this came to an abrupt end against Atletico. The 2-5 loss was the heaviest blow since Alonso took charge. In addition to the huge gap in scores, what is even more worrying is the increasing number of the team against Mbappe. This player has almost become the only pillar on the offensive end. The team has not yet found a balance point on the front line. In the eight official games so far so far (7 league games and 1 Champions League), Mbappe scored 10 of Real Madrid's 18 goals, and only did not score in the game against Mallorca.
data proves Mbappe's strong offensive influence. In the league, he scored 8 goals with just 24 shots, including 13 direct shots. This efficiency not only reflects his dominance in the penalty area, but also highlights the team's lack of other firepower points on the offensive end. In other words, the problem of Real Madrid relying on Mbappe's offensive firepower is already very obvious. In these 8 games, except for Mbappe, only four players scored goals: Guerre, Militon, Vinicius and Mastantono.
When facing Atletico Madrid, the main problem of Real Madrid is its overall fragility. Although Mbappe maintained his consistently high level in the season, the team failed to sync with him. The midfielder was unstable in creating opportunities, failed to provide enough support for the forwards, the defense was washed away, and the bench did not provide effective solutions to reverse the game. Real Madrid has a world-class striker in excellent form and a keen sense of offense, but it is unable to build a coordinated overall combat around Mbappe.
