By scoring the second goal of the French team Friday evening against Ukraine (2-0 victory), thanks to a well-placed strike from the law after eliminating the opposing defender, Kylian Mbappé became the second top scorer in the history of the Blues, equaling the total of 51 goals scored by his compatriot Thierry Henry. A figure which he aims to exceed quickly.
“I want to overcome it now. It is an honor to match a player like Thierry Henry. Everyone knows what it represents for us, the French. He was someone who paved the way, who has done huge things, I have a lot of respect and admiration for him. To reach this kind of figure is lunar but I like it. I want to continue, I like that, again win titles “he admitted. At this rate, Mbappé should also pass in front of Olivier Giroud and his 57 goals with the Blues.
