Real Madrid forward Kylian Mbappé has voiced his stance regarding controversial refereeing decisions following his team's 2-1 defeat to Atlético Madrid in the Madrid Derby, taking a reserved position despite manager José Mourinho's public criticism.
Speaking to Spanish media outlet 'AS' in Zurich, Mbappé acknowledged that the referee made errors during Sunday's match—specifically concerning missed red card offenses on challenges by Atlético's Cristian Romero and Lee Kang-in—but stated he prefers not to dwell on refereeing controversies publicly. "Referees are human and make mistakes. Mistakes were made that day, but I don't want to talk about it further," the French star remarked.
Describing the loss as a temporary setback for Real Madrid, Mbappé emphasized that the squad put forth maximum effort on the pitch and urged his teammates to maintain focus as a long season remains ahead.
