Mbappe Equals Ronaldo Record in Real Madrid's 2-0 Win ...

Mbappe scored his 59th goal in 2025, matching Ronaldo's Real Madrid record set in 2013, with 29 goals in 24 games this season, leading La Liga scoring.

  • On Saturday, Kylian Mbappe equalled Cristiano Ronaldo's Real Madrid calendar-year goal record by converting a late penalty at the Santiago Bernabeu to secure a 2-0 win against Sevilla.
  • Having joined from Paris Saint-Germain, Mbappe regained form and became Real Madrid's key player, scoring 29 goals in 24 games across all competitions.
  • After missing earlier opportunities, Mbappe converted a penalty following a foul on Rodrygo, Bellingham opened scoring, and Sevilla lost Marcao to a second booking.
  • The result left Real second in LaLiga, one point behind Barcelona, and Xabi Alonso's side closed the year with three successive wins, with Mbappe remaining the team's focal player.
  • He paid tribute by copying Ronaldo's jumping `Siu` celebration and said Ronaldo helped him adapt to Real Madrid, calling it an honour to match his idol on Saturday.
