As things stand during the 2nd-half in Spain’s capital, Los Blancos find themselves in serious trouble, two goals down and en route to a first league defeat of the campaign.

This only comes, though, after the reigning La Liga champions saw an opening goal of their own chalked off during the first-half.

After Kylian Mbappé appeared to have broken the offside trap before dinking home a fine finish, ensuing replays showcased the fact that the Frenchman had started his run too early.

Mbappé had already celebrated his goal passionately, too, an action which included a tribute to none other than Cristiano Ronaldo.

As showcased in the footage below, after wheeling away towards the stands at the Santiago Bernabéu, the summer arrival in Madrid hit the infamous ‘calma, calma’ gesture made famous by Ronaldo in El Clásico.
