French star Kylian Mbappe, Real Madrid striker, made a point of comforting a young fan after the child was struck in the face by a powerful shot during the match against Racing Santander, which ended in a 3-0 victory for Real Madrid in La Liga.

The incident occurred at El Sardinero Stadium, home of Racing Santander, when a shot by French midfielder Aurelien Tchouameni hit a child in the stands, causing him to cry, as shown in the television replay.

After the match, the child and his father were interviewed by Real Madrid TV to discuss the incident. During the interview, Mbappe surprised them by appearing behind them, delighting the child, who turned to his father and said, "Dad, look, it's Mbappe."

The French striker approached the child and his father, shook their hands, and joked about the incident, saying, "It's Tchouameni's fault, he doesn't know how to shoot," before posing for a photo with them.
