ByAugusto Kilone

Wednesday's UEFA Super Cup match saw the birth of a new attacking trio at Real Madrid, consisting of Frenchman Kylian Mbappe, Englishman Jude Bellingham and Brazilian Vinicius Junior.

The trio, dubbed “BMV” by the Spanish press, has performed so well that it is expected that they will perhaps surpass the legendary former Real Madrid trio of Karim Benzema, Bale and Cristiano Ronaldo, known as “BBC”.

During the match against Italian Atalanta at the Warsaw Stadium in Poland, the Frenchman's first appearance was perfect, as he scored a goal that raised his tally to 9 goals in 12 final matches.

More importantly, the Frenchman showed harmony with the Englishman Bellingham and the Brazilian Vinicius Junior, and together they formed a terrifying attacking force that will have a great impact this season in various local and continental competitions.

Mbappe.. 9 goals in 12 finals

Kylian Mbappé has scored 9 goals in the last 12 finals he has played in between Paris Saint-Germain, the French national team and Real Madrid, with whom he won his first European title.

This is the first of 7 titles that the royal team will compete for this season.

2024 was not a special year for Mbappe, but the numbers do not lie as he is the top scorer in the top five leagues with 24 goals and 32 assists in all competitions.

Vinicius Junior.. 11 finals

The Brazilian striker put in a brilliant performance in the final against Atalanta, opening the scoring in the 59th minute, his seventh goal in the finals he has participated in with Real Madrid.

His influence does not stop there, as he provided 4 assists, which means that he contributed to 11 goals in 11 finals he played with Real Madrid.

In 2024, the Brazilian scored a hat-trick against Barcelona in the Spanish Super Cup final (4-1), scored a goal against Dortmund in the Champions League final at Wembley (0-2), and provided an assist for Valverde in the first goal against Atalanta (2-0).

Bellingham.. Three finals

Jude Bellingham was named the UEFA Super Cup's best player after being crucial in winning the title in Warsaw.

The England international has assisted in all three finals he has played with Real Madrid (Spanish Super Cup against Barcelona, ​​Champions League against Dortmund, and European Super Cup against Atalanta).

Bellingham's impact in the finals was clear, although he did not score, but the Englishman did contribute to winning four titles in just 13 months: the Champions League, the Spanish League, the Super Cup, and the European Super Cup.

BBC Trio

Comparisons between the current trio are certainly notable.PMV” with “BBC It seems a bit early because the numbers achieved by the trio Benzema, Cristiano and Bale in 5 seasons seem unattainable at the moment.

From the 2013-14 season to 2017-18, the trio scored 442 goals and won 13 titles, including 3 Champions League titles, and averaged 2.7 goals per game, a remarkable feat that contributed to the three players winning more than 70% of matches with Real Madrid.

Italian coach Carlo Ancelotti was asked after the end of the European Super Cup about the comparison between “BMV” and “BBC”, especially since he also coached the trio Ronaldo, Benzema and Bale, and he replied, “We talked about that yesterday in the technical staff, and it is very difficult to compare this team with the 2014 team.”
