Real Madrid star Kylian Mbappé could not contain his delight after watching understudy Gonzalo García take full advantage of his rare opportunity to impress on Sunday.
Youngster Gonzalo has of course dominated the headlines in Spain’s capital this evening.
As much comes amid a starring individual performance to date…
Xabi Alonso’s troops are currently locked in action on the domestic front, in a La Liga meeting with Manuel Pellegrini’s Real Betis.
As things stand, Los Blancos look well on their way to three points, leading by three goals to one.
And it is the aforementioned Gonzalo who has proven himself the star of the show.
The young frontman was first responsible for opening the scoring courtesy of a fine header, before doubling Real Madrid’s advantage by way of a wonderful volleyed effort during the 2nd-half.
And as alluded to above, watching on from the stands at the Bernabéu, the injured Kylian Mbappé looked nothing short of delighted for his young teammate:
