Kylian Mbappé stutter-stepped in his runup, aimed for the lower left side of the net — and watched as Real Betis’ goalkeeper leapt to smother his penalty shot. Álvaro Valles' save of Mbappé’s injury-time penalty kick secured an unexpected 1-0 win for the host in La Liga on Friday. Valles capped his outstanding performance, which included a diving swat of an early header by Jude Bellingham among other saves, with his biggest save of the night.
