He finally did it: after five matches, Franco Mastantuono was finally able to celebrate his first goal with Real Madrid. He scored in Casa Blanca's 4-1 victory over Levante on matchday 6 of LaLiga.
At the 38th minute of the first half, after a counterattack led by Vinicius Jr., the Argentine unleashed a precise right-footed shot that left the Australian goalkeeper Mathew Ryan with no chance.
It should be noted that minutes earlier he had two clear chances. The first was a shot that grazed the post and the second a strike that hit the crossbar after a rebound left by the Australian goalkeeper following a powerful shot from Vinicius, who had scored the first goal of the match.
Although he played most of the second half, Xabi Alonso ultimately decided to substitute the former River at the 71st minute for Tchouaméni with the match already decided.
The other goals of the match were scored by the Cameroonian Etta Eyong at the 54th minute to reduce the deficit for the home team and Kylian Mbappé twice: the first at the 64th minute from the penalty spot and the second two minutes later after a great assist from Arda Güler.
When will Real Madrid play again
Casa Blanca's next match will be none other than the Madrid classic against Atlético de Madrid, on matchday eight of LaLiga. Beyond the historic rivalry, this will be a match with an extra element, as it will feature three former Millonarios players, Julián Álvarez and Giuliano Simeone for Atleti and Mastantuono himself for Real.
The Spanish capital's clásico will take place this Saturday, September 27 at 11:15 (Argentine time) at the Riyadh Air Metropolitano Stadium.
