Penalty nightmare? Mbappé misses two penalties in a week across UCL and La Liga

On Matchday 19 of La Liga, Real Madrid faced Athletic Bilbao where Kylian Mbappé's penalty was saved, marking the first time he had missed a penalty in his La Liga career. This was his second penalty miss in a week.

During the match, Rüdiger won a penalty after being brought down in the penalty area in the second half, but Mbappé's penalty was denied by the opposing goalkeeper.

This was Mbappé's fourth penalty attempt in La Liga and the first he failed to convert. Moreover, it was the second penalty miss of his Real Madrid career from five attempts. Just a week ago in the Champions League against Liverpool, Mbappé's penalty was also saved by the goalkeeper.
