Real Madrid striker Kylian Mbappe was included in the line-up for the El Clasico against Barcelona at Camp Nou on Sunday.
The France international was sidelined as he continued to recover from a hamstring injury suffered earlier in the season. Although he returned to training this week, he was not part of the match selection.
Mbappe’s absence will be a huge blow for Madrid, who are trying to slow Barcelona’s march to a second consecutive title. A win or a draw will confirm Barcelona’s La Liga title on Sunday.
