In a crucial week in Real Madrid’s season, Kylian Mbappe stepped up to the plate. The 26-year-old scored on his derby debut against Atletico Madrid — he had missed this season’s first meeting between the city rivals in September with a thigh injury — and played a key role as Carlo Ancelotti’s team pushed for a winner at the Bernabeu.

The Brazilian winger was taunted by Manchester City fans before the game, but put in a man of the match performance to give his side the advantage.

After a 1-1 draw in the Madrid Derby against Atletico Madrid on Saturday, Real Madrid will maintain a slim one-point lead atop La Liga. A controversial penalty that Julian Alvarez buried for his 17th goal in all competitions in the first half was canceled out by Kylian Mbappe's first goal in this rivalry in the second half.
