“Scoring Like Cristiano Feels Special” – Mbappé on Matching Ronaldo’s Record
Kylian Mbappé has matched Cristiano Ronaldo’s goal record in his debut season at Real Madrid.
The French forward bagged a brace in Madrid’s thrilling 3-2 comeback win over Leganes on Saturday. He opened the scoring from the penalty spot at the Santiago Bernabéu, but Leganes responded almost immediately through Diego Garcia. Dani Raba then put the visitors ahead before halftime.
After the break, Jude Bellingham leveled the game, setting the stage for Mbappé to grab his second goal of the night. That strike marked his 33rd goal across all competitions this season, equaling Ronaldo’s tally in his first campaign at the club. Only Iván Zamorano (37 goals) has scored more in his debut season for Madrid.
Speaking to Real Madrid TV, Mbappé described the achievement as special, emphasizing that team success remains the priority. He also acknowledged Ronaldo’s influence, revealing that they stay in touch and that the Portuguese star often gives him advice. Mbappé’s 33 goals include 22 in La Liga, all scored in just 45 appearances.
Ademola Lookman has praised Atlético Madrid following their 2–0 victory over Barcelona.
It can be noted that the match ended 2–0, with goals scored by Julián Álvarez and Alexander Sørloth.
Speaking in a recent interview, Lookman commended the team’s performance and unity “It was a good result. The performance of the team, especially not to concede here, shows the work everyone’s been doing and the togetherness.”
Young Arsenal player Max Dowman is making headlines after reaching a major milestone—becoming the youngest player to feature in the UEFA Champions League knockout stages.
The previous record was held by Lamine Yamal, who made his appearance at 16 years and 223 days. Dowman, however, has now broken that record at just 16 years and 97 days.
The youngster continues to show great promise, adding another impressive achievement to his early career.
Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher has shared his thoughts on Arsenal’s chances of winning the Premier League this season.
The club had been leading the title race but suffered two consecutive losses, shaking fans’ confidence and raising doubts about their consistency.
Carragher admitted that while Arsenal have been impressive overall, the recent losses were disappointing.
“It was a big result for Arsenal but it wasn’t a great performance. The real question is: if they play like that for the rest of the season, will they win the league? We’ll see.”
