With his converted penalty against Sevilla in La Liga (Madrid victory 2-0), Kylian Mbappé scored his 59th goal of the year 2025 and equaled Cristiano Ronaldo’s historic record, established in 2013 with Real Madrid. On this occasion, the French striker did not hesitate to send a beautiful tribute to his idol, thanking him “because he has always been great with me, he helped me adapt to Madrid, and it’s great to contribute to Real’s victories”.
On Instagram, the former Parisian also published photos of himself celebrating his penalty in the style of CR7, accompanied by the message ” Believe in your dreams. Respect “to which the Portuguese star then responded with a “high five” emoji and a flame. We suspect that the two men spoke at greater length in private, especially since it was also Kylian Mbappé’s birthday.
