Kylian Mbappé continues to rewrite history in Blue. By scoring against Ukraine during the Blues’ big success (4-0) at the Parc des Princes, the French striker found the net for the sixth consecutive meeting with the France team. A rare performance, which testifies to his impressive consistency and his growing offensive influence despite a complicated personal context at the club. With this statistic, Mbappé establishes himself a little further in the lineage of the great scorers in the history of the Blues, capable of being present at each gathering, each meeting, each high-stakes match.
This series now places him at the height of a record more than thirty years old. We must in fact go back to the period September 1990 – October 1991 to find such a prolific player match after match: a certain Jean-Pierre Papin, author of a series of seven consecutive matches with at least one goal. Mbappé is only one step away from equalizing, and could very quickly seize it alone. In a selection already qualified for the 2026 World Cup, this stratospheric pace confirms that the captain remains the offensive locomotive of the France team… and that he continues to push the limits game after game.
