The prodigy of Bondy (Seine-Saint-Denis), Kylian Mbappé, never ceases to explode the goal counters in the Champions League. After his double, Wednesday April 7, 2021, against Bayern Munich in the quarter-final first leg, the Paris striker now counts eight goals in eight games.
27 achievements at 22: ahead of everyone
Including a sensational hat-trick on the lawn of FC Barcelona in the previous round, a performance that no one had achieved since 1997. If we consider the entire career of the player in C1, he is at 27 achievements in 43 meetings, at only 22 years old. Compared to the legends of the competition, Kylian Mbappé flies over the competition.
At the same age, Lionel Messi had “only” 18 goals, while Karim Benzema had scored thirteen. As for the Portuguese Cristiano Ronaldo, it was three. In a knockout match, his 13 goals put him ahead Zlatan Ibrahimovic (ten goals) and Thierry Henry (12). In addition, with his 27 goals, Kylian Mbappé ranks fifth in the ranking of the best French scorers from the cut to the big ears.
Bondy’s child is “Unstoppable”.
