Mbappé has late penalty saved in Real Madrid loss at Betis

BARCELONA, Spain (AP): Kylian Mbappé stutter-stepped in his runup, aimed for the lower left side of the net – and watched as Real Betis’ goalkeeper leapt to smother his penalty shot. Moments later, the whistle blew at La Cartuja Stadium. Madrid lost their first match in Jose Mourinho’s return to the bench this season. Álvaro Valles’ save of Mbappé’s injury-time penalty kick secured an unexpected 1-0 win for the hosts in La Liga yesterday.
