Ancelotti says Mbappé lacks confidence after penalty miss in Champions League loss to Liverpool
Kylian Mbappé missed a penalty in Real Madrid's 2-0 loss to Liverpool in the Champions League, prompting coach Carlo Ancelotti to suggest he is experiencing "a lack of confidence." This miss occurred when the score was 1-0 in favor of Liverpool. Mbappé has scored only two goals in his last nine matches and has not netted in four consecutive Champions League games. Ancelotti emphasized the need for patience and support for the forward during this challenging time. Real Madrid's Eduardo Camavinga was substituted due to a left leg injury, which could sideline him for two to three weeks. Ancelotti acknowledged Liverpool's deserved victory, noting their strong performance and clear chances created during the match.
