Toni Kroos says he is unhappy to see Barcelona's Raphinha pick up the Man of the Match Award in El Clasico last Sunday.
Speaking on his podcast, Kroos said: "Kylian Mbappé [has to be the Man of the Match].
"No one said it has to be a player from the winning team. If you score three goals, you are the MVP to me," Kroos said.
Raphinha scored twice in that game and caused all kinds of problems for the Real Madrid defence.
However, Mbappe showed up strong on the day, banging a hat-trick and extending his lead as La Liga's top scorer for the campaign with 27 goals.
