Arbeloa Explains Mbappé Substitution in Draw with Betis

In the LaLiga match on Friday, Real Madrid managed by Álvaro Arbeloa drew 1-1 with Betis. Kylian Mbappé, the team's forward and captain, was substituted in the 82nd minute for Gonzalo García while Real Madrid was leading 1-0.

The decision was made due to Mbappé experiencing discomfort during the match. Despite the lead provided by Vinícius Júnior's goal in the first half, a late equalizer from Héctor Bellerín ensured that Real Madrid only secured one point from the encounter.

Following the match, Arbeloa addressed the media regarding Mbappé's condition, stating that they would monitor his discomfort and assess his progress in the coming days. Real Madrid's next match is against Espanyol.
