THE DREAM DEBUT

UEFA Champions League Winners Real Madrid were facing the Europa League Winners Atlanta in the UEFA Super Cup Game at Warsaw. It was expected to be a one-sided match and it turned out to be one. Though Atlanta fought hard, but they were no match in front of the Galactico's. Interestingly at the end of first half the scorecard read 0-0. They even created chances. However, it was very much expected that Madrid will breach the Atlanta defense any moment and it eventually happened in the second half.

Valverde scored the opening goal of the game in the 59th minute which was soon followed by Mbappe's goal. It was his first goal for Real Madrid and that too in his debut game. Nothing gets better than this. At the end of 90 minutes the match ended 2-0 as Real Madrid won yet another UEFA Super Cup Title. 

Mbappe has won the first silverware with the club of his dreams. One will only hope that this dream run continues for long and he lifts many more trophies.
