Kylian Mbappe flubbed Jude Bellingham’s assist of the season contender

Real Madrid superstar midfielder Jude Bellingham made his return to the team on Tuesday night in the Champions League after suffering an injury, and he didn’t miss a beat for the Merengues.

He helped Real Madrid beat one of his former Bundesliga foes Stuttgart 3-1, as Kylian Mbappe, Antonio Rudiger, and unforgettably Endrick all found the back of the net in this one.
Mbappe, however, could have had two goals, because he flubbed a ridiculous, defense-splitting through ball from Bellingham in midfield, as the England international found the tiniest of cracks in the Stuttgart defense to spring his world-class striker through.
Unfortunately, as you can see here, Mbappe could only produce a tame touch of the caliber that would even make Romelu Lukaku go, “Woof, you should have done better with that one.”

That was an early assist of the season contender in the Champions League for Bellingham right there. But no matter, Mbappe got his goal, and Real Madrid, most importantly, got their third straight convincing win against quality opposition.
