Mbappé: "It is a team victory"

Kylian Mbappé was the main protagonist of the first Clásico of the season. The French forward scored a brace and reached the milestone of 100 goals as a madridista. This is how he analyzed the victory at Camp Nou: "It is a team victory. The protagonist of the match is the team and the group because we knew we had to play a strong game, but also a team game. We prepared well in the last few matches because we won and played well. We came in with a good mindset, and today we gave it our all. We had a tough moment in the match and another where we dominated. In the end, winning and still being in the LaLiga race is very important for us, but we have to keep going. We know it’s a big match, but it counts as three points, and we need many more to win LaLiga.”

100 goals with Real Madrid
“I’m very happy. Everyone knows that I like scoring goals and helping the team in that way. But I think today this is just a detail because the most important thing is the team’s victory and the group effort. This victory will give the group a lot of confidence, and there will be many more goals, so it’s not that important.”

The importance of the team
“If we want to achieve things this year, we have to do it as a group and as a team because the quality is here. When you see the players we have, anyone who says there’s no quality is lying. But we have to do everything as a team and as a group because that’s how we’re going to achieve the things we want to achieve.”

Five wins in five matches after the international break
“This means that this is Real Madrid. Real Madrid has to win matches, and that’s what we’re doing right now. We have to keep going because five matches mean nothing to us. We want to win every match we play. Today sends a good message, but we cannot think the season is over because nothing is finished yet. We have to rest first, and next week in Santander, we have to bring the same intensity and win another match. Hala Madrid! Greetings to all madridistas.”
