Against Real Valladolid, he missed two significant opportunities to break his goal drought, per ESPN.
With a commanding two-goal lead for Madrid, Mbappe was substituted in the 86th minute.
His replacement, Endrick Felipe, who was debuting for Los Blancos, managed to capitalise on his chance and score, securing a 3-0 victory.
