Atalanta equalized the goal on the extra minute of the first half with a penalty kick by Ketelaere, after Tchouaméni kicked Kolasinac inside the 18 yard box as the last man standing. It looks like Mbappe is injured because he was substituted by Rodrigo. Atalanta kept on pressuring till they forced Madrid to commit a penalty kick. From the look of how the match went in the first half, do you think that Madrid would be able to win this match.

Real Madrid's victory yesterday was an important victory that saved them from a vulnerable position in the standings. However, the remaining two matches should not be careless because their distance from other teams with a point difference is not far, only two points.
When Mbappe had to be replaced, I doubted Real Madrid's victory, but that did not happen. Vinicius and Bellingham made a difference in the score.
Madrid's victory had to be paid for by losing Mbappe.

Of course this is an important victory for Real Madrid to keep their hopes of qualifying for the next round, and Real Madrid proved their quality on the Champions League stage even though they were doubted but they managed to win at Atalanta's headquarters.

What is interesting is that I saw Real Madrid's performance much better in the second half or when Mbappe was no longer on the front line, so I think Mbappe has been a problem so that Real Madrid's front line cannot play optimally and in this match it was proven when in the second half Real Madrid's front line was better without Mbappe.
