Mbappe came to Madrid for this type of match

Real Madrid’s Spanish coach Alvaro Arbeloa said on Monday, on the eve of the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals against Bayern Munich, that his French star Kylian Mbappe came to Madrid to shine “in matches like these.”
Arbeloa said in a press conference: “Mbappe? It is clear that he has different characteristics than Ibrahim (Moroccan Diaz), and therefore we will have to play in a different way. But I am very happy to have this type of problem: to have great players at my disposal, including Mbappe, who came to Real Madrid in order to play matches like tomorrow’s match.”
He added regarding the French striker, who was subjected to much criticism before this decisive confrontation, after he returned as a starter during Saturday’s loss to Mallorca (1-2): “I am confident that we will see him at his best levels, and that he will lead the team as he always did.”
A segment of the Spanish press and observers believe that Real Madrid was better collectively during the absence of the French national team captain, who has been away from the field since February due to an injury to his left knee.
Arbeloa continued, “I can assure you that having players like him is an exceptional opportunity. I believe that there is no coach in the world who does not want to have him on his team. I put myself in the place of the opposing defenders who have to face players like Kylian, (Brazilian) Vinicius, and (Englishman Houd) Billingham, who are among the best in the world….”
When asked again about his top scorer, who scored 38 goals in 35 matches for the Royal Club this season, the Madrid coach reminded that “he knew exactly what Real Madrid represents.”
He said, “He is a boy who dreamed of playing for Real Madrid, and you have all seen pictures of him as a child wearing our shirt. He achieved his dream, and it was not easy. I hope you will ask me the question again after we have eliminated Bayern.”
For his part, Vinicius Junior, who appeared before the media before his coach, confirmed that he enjoys a “special relationship” with his attacking partner, “one of those players who makes the difference.”
