Real Madrid falls to Real Betis after Kylian Mbappe misses injury-time penalty

Real Madrid suffered a 0-1 defeat against Real Betis on matchday four after forward Kylian Mbappe failed to convert a penalty in injury time. Real Betis goalkeeper Alvaro Valles denied Mbappe from the spot to secure the win for the visitors. The miss highlights a recurring issue for the forward, whose career failure rate on penalties now stands at 19.7%. Despite the loss, Mbappe maintains a strong individual record this season, having scored four goals in his opening three matches, including a hat-trick against Real Sociedad. Manager Jose Mourinho is expected to retain his confidence in the player despite the recent struggles. Mbappe remains focused on his seasonal objectives, including the pursuit of individual awards such as the Ballon d’Or and the Golden Boot.
