Real Madrid Confidencial Edu Gets Emotional when Talking about Mbappé and Issues a Warning: 'I've Seen Him...'
The journalist has spoken about the Frenchman in very surprising terms
Real Madrid complicated things for themselves against Celta in a game they had won with a 2-0 lead in the final stretch. They allowed a tie with two silly mistakes and had to go into extra time. There, the quality of Endrick and Fede Valverde, with stunning goals, solved the qualifying competition.
However, Mbappé had been the main protagonist of the round of 16 against Celta at Bernabéu. The Frenchman opened the scoring after a spectacular counterattack that started from the center of the field. However, he demonstrated his improvement and the leadership he has within the team.
Something Edu Aguirre applauded on El Chiringuito when he returned to the set after the game at Bernabéu. He stated that against Celta, "I saw him as a captain" and that moved him. It seemed clear that after the hard blow of the Supercopa, he was happy with what he had seen.
Edu assures that "I've seen the PSG Mbappé in terms of character, leadership, and hunger." In fact, to refer to him as "captain," he assures that "he was the player who encouraged his teammates the most. For Mbappé to tell Bernabéu what to do or not to do, this is my Mbappé," he concluded.
The adaptation Ancelotti talked about and Mbappé's step forward
Ancelotti said a few weeks ago that Mbappé had gone through a period of adaptation to the team. However, this ended, and since then, we've been seeing a different Mbappé. Little by little, he had shown a better image, as against Sevilla or Valencia.
However, it was in the Clásico where, despite the defeat, he escaped criticism after a great performance. Against Celta in the Copa, he once again confirmed that he has taken the step forward that Madrid fans were demanding. Now he is indeed being the decisive player, the global star.
He not only scored a stunning goal but also threaded the pass to Brahim in the play for Vinícius's goal. Additionally, he kept making runs, offering himself to provide solutions to his teammates. He even directed his teammates' pressing, showing that he has now completed his adaptation to the team.
