Real Madrid player ratings vs Real Betis: Kylian Mbappe has La Liga lift off! Summer signing silences the haters with brace - but don't let Fede Valverde's dreamy assist be forgotten 

 

Well, Kylian Mbappe took his time, but he's finally arrived in La Liga. The France star, after going three whole games without scoring in Madrid white, bagged two for his new club against Real Betis, helping secure a solid 2-0 win amidst a more convincing performance for the defending champions.

Madrid eventually made their dominance count as, after 67 minutes, Mbappe opened the scoring with a calm finish after a wonderful Federico Valverde backheel assist. He then added a second from the penalty spot soon after following a foul on Vinicius.

This wasn't a perfect showing from Carlo Ancelotti's side, who were predictable at times and often got in each other's way. They remain vulnerable on the break, too. Still, their main man bagged the goals, and they look a far better side than the one that drew with Mallorca just two weeks ago.
