Kylian mbappe to take real madrid penalties from next match.

Reason Kylian Mbappe ‘REFUSED to take penalty’ revealed as he walked away before horror Vinicius Jr miss

REAL MADRID were left breathing a sigh of relief after seeing off Atletico on penalties following a 2-2 aggregate draw.

Kylian Mbappe was one of the players who coolly converted his spot kick in the shootout - but he was reportedly unwilling to take one during the game.

Vinicius Jr then stepped up in Mbappe's place after the World Cup winner was fouled by Clement Lenglet.

And the Brazilian blasted the ball so far wide that it may well have missed if there were two goals.

But after the match, Guillem Balague claimed that Mbappe is still the designated penalty taker.

The LaLiga TV reporter said: "Real Madrid won a penalty but Kylian Mbappe was not right. He struggled with his ankle and with a toenail that is coming off.

"You had the penalty missed by Vinicius Jr in normal time. Mbappe said to Vinicius, 'I don't feel like kicking this, I am not ready' and walked away from it, Vini took it and it went high."

‘MARCA’ has revealed that Kylian Mbappé will regain his position as the first-choice penalty taker at Real Madrid after Vinícius missed his penalty against Valencia

Last weekend, Real Madrid could have sealed their fate in LaLiga after suffering an unexpected loss to Valencia… if it hadn't been for the gift that, hours later, Barcelona gave them by drawing with Betis. However, the missed penalty by Vinícius in the first half reignited the debate over who should be the primary penalty taker at Real Madrid, and according to MARCA, Ancelotti has made a drastic decision.

Vinícius’ Mistakes That Have Condemned Real Madrid and Brazil

Kylian Mbappe failed to convert his penalty on Wednesday, hitting a new low for Real Madrid.

Kylian Mbappe’s highly publicised move to Real Madrid in June, ended a seven-year transfer saga. But the move hasn't worked according to the club's plan, with the French forward in poor form. Last week, Mbappe came under fire after he missed a penalty in his side’s 0-2 defeat vs Liverpool in the Champions League. He stepped up to take the spot-kick once again for Madrid on Wednesday, against Athletic Club.

But the Frenchman missed his penalty once again as Real Madrid crashed to a 1-2 defeat. Bilbao took the lead via Alejandro Remiro in the 53rd-minute, and then Mbappe missed the penalty, which could have levelled proceedings.
