Following Arsenal’s excellent Champions League performance against Real Madrid, Kylian Mbappe has come out to offer Madrid fans that there is hope. The former PSG player says he believes Real Madrid can mastermind what would be a remarkable comeback and overturn the 3-0 loss.
English Premier League Arsenal thrashed Real Madrid 3-0 courtesy of Declan Rice brace and Merino’s goal. The Gunners will take a huge advantage to the Bernabeu next Wednesday for the return leg. Overcoming a first-leg deficit of three of more goals is not without precedent in the Champions League.
In 2017, Spanish side Barcelona beat Paris Saint-Germain 6-1 after losing the first leg in Paris. While, two years later, Liverpool overturned a 4-0 against Barca after they were beaten away 3-0. Kylian Mbappe gave Real Madrid fans reason to dream when he posted on Instagram: ‘We have to believe until the end.’
Mbappe’s message was the same as he left Emirates Stadium and was asked if his team could turn things around. His response was: “Of course we can come back.” Real Madrid will face Alaves on Sunday after which they will face Arsenal.
