Carlo Ancelotti, manager of Real Madrid, praised Kylian Mbappé despite his team’s disappointing 5-2 loss to Barcelona in the Spanish Super Cup final on Sunday.

Ancelotti expressed his disappointment with the overall performance but noted Mbappé’s standout contribution in the match.

The French forward, who joined Real Madrid from Paris Saint-Germain, gave his team an early lead in the 5th minute with a well-taken goal.

He also earned a penalty for the Los Blancos, showing his continued impact on the field.

However, Barcelona quickly turned the game around, with goals from Lamine Yamal, Robert Lewandowski, Raphinha, and Alejandro Balde before the break, and Raphinha added a fifth shortly after halftime.

Ancelotti admitted the match was frustrating, noting that even with an extra player, Real Madrid struggled to find solutions.

“The game was not good from the first minute to the last,” he said. “I’m sad about the game as a whole.

I can’t take anything away from it except Mbappé’s performance, who scored a great goal in a good move.”

Looking ahead, Ancelotti urged his team to forget the defeat and focus on their next challenge.

Former footballer Paul Scholes condemns Martin Odegaard and speaks on his performance in the Arsenal team.

The football legend shared how it is the captain that is bringing the team down, as he is not playing his position properly “That game on Saturday [Arsenal vs Newcastle], I didn’t see all of it, I probably saw the first half an hour, but I think Odegaard is a big problem for them.”

“I love Odegaard, I think he’s brilliant. Technically, he’s great, but he doesn’t play his position properly. Half the time I saw him in the first 20 minutes, he was almost the deepest man.”

Nigerian politician Peter Obi reacts to the viral incident that occurred in Delta State.

It can be noted that Obi is reacting to the clip of a police officer shooting and killing an already restrained suspect.

Obi stated that it was a serious violation and abuse of power “The extrajudicial killing of a young Nigerian in Effurun, Delta State, by a police officer, Mr. Mene Ogidi, is not only barbaric but also a grave violation of the rule of law.

“Over time, human society has moved away from an era when lives could be taken without consequence. Through the evolution of civilisation, a fundamental principle has emerged: no one should be punished or deprived of life without due process and a fair determination of guilt.”
