Kroos: Mbappe is the best national derby, it is not his fault to lose the Champions League & it is not easy to play for Real Madrid

05 May 14th Last Sunday, Real Madrid lost to Barcelona 3-4, and Kroos discussed the game in his podcast "Einfachmal Luppen", which also included Mbappe.

Mbappe scored a hat-trick in this game but still couldn't make it back. Rafinia was named the best player of the game. Kroos said: "I think the MVP of this game is Mbappe. The best player does not have to come from the winning team. If you score three goals like him, in my opinion you are the best."

Kroos also talked about the difficulties Mbappe encountered this season and affirmed his performance: "It was difficult for him at the beginning, but he was in great shape recently. He has proved this again in the national derby. He is always full of dangers and can always bring different offensive choices.

"I know it is not easy to come to Real Madrid with so many expectations. The first two months were difficult, but he has responded that his recent goal was not luck. ”

Regarding Real Madrid's defeat in the Champions League this year, Kroos said: "This is not Mbappe's fault. He has made great progress, which is worthy of recognition. ”
