MADRID : Real Madrid forward Kylian Mbappe said scoring his first LaLiga goals for his new club on Sunday was a relief after drawing a blank in their first three league games of the season.

"I've been happy ever since I arrived here," Mbappe told DAZN."People have given me a lot of affection here, even when I didn't score, which was for three games. For some that doesn't seem much but for me it was a lot! Coming off a disappointing 1-1 draw at lowly Las Palmas on Thursday, and still without midfielder Jude Bellingham due to a leg injury, the home side made another slow start against Betis.
"It's a great moment. I was really looking forward to scoring in this mythical stadium, the best in the world," Mbappe said.
