📸 An open wound, Mbappé shows the aftermath of the elbow he took | OneFootball

The French Real Madrid forward, Kylian Mbappé, has shared the shocking physical aftermath of the latest league match on his social media.

In an image posted on his official Instagram profile, the French star shows a deep cut on his eyebrow that required several stitches after the clash against Girona.

The blow came during a play that has sparked huge controversy around Real Madrid. Mbappé took a clear elbow inside the box, forcing him to receive medical treatment on the pitch.

Despite the obvious contact and the bleeding, neither the referee nor VAR considered the incident worthy of a penalty.

This post from Kylian not only confirms the severity of the impact, but also serves as a silent message in response to the refereeing omission.
