Fans are worried about Kylian Mbappe as invisible tunnel images emerge after Real Madrid lost to Liverpool – Champions League

Fans on Wednesday had their say over an incident involving Kylian Mbappe during Liverpool’s 2-0 win over Real Madrid in the Champions League.

Mbappe25, had a night to forget at Anfield.

The Madrid forward was kept quiet for much of the evening, and Conor Bradley‘s perfectly timed tackle to dispossess the Frenchman inside 32 minutes summed up Madrid and the striker’s evening on Merseyside.

The tackle seemed to wake up the Liverpool faithful, who cheered their side on. But the former PSG man’s evening got even worse after 61 minutes.

When Lucas Vazquez was fouled by Andrew Robertson, the defending European champions were awarded a penalty on the Anfield Road side.

Stepped up Mbappe, normally a master of the penalty, but his shot on Caoimhin Kelleher’s left was saved by the Irishman, much to the delight of Arne Slot and his side.

To make matters worse, fans think they spotted an awkward moment in the tunnel before Madrid headed into the second half.

With the score perfectly at 0-0, the Spanish team gathered in the tunnel.

As several players waited to take the field, Mbappe appeared to try to offer teammate Jude Bellingham a few words of advice or tactical knowledge.

However, the England international appeared to ‘ignore’ his fellow Madrid star and instead spoke to Antonio Rudiger, Fede Valverde and Brahim Diaz.

Of course, it’s unclear exactly what was said during the exchange between Bellingham and Mbappe, but fans were quick to speak out on social media.

One said: “He (Kylian Mbappe) isn’t even a leader in the dressing room… Jude (Bellingham) didn’t even speak to him.”

Another added: “Even as a Barca fan you have to feel sorry for him. A little, but I enjoy it.”

With a third exclaiming: “I feel sad for him tbh.”

The 25-year-old had been closely linked with a move to the Spanish giants for some time, but finally joined the club in June 2024 after his contract with PSG expired.

Despite scoring nine goals and providing two assists in his 18 appearances for Los Blancos, he has yet to reach the great heights expected of him.

One of the problems is the fact that Vinicius Jr. prefers to play on the left of a front three – the same position Mbappé used at PSG.

This has seemingly left Carlo Ancelotti in a dilemma as both players are arguably world-class players and would not be very happy about being benched.

The result returned Liverpool to top spot in the 36-team Champions League group stage, while Madrid dropped to 24the position.
