Mbappé Breaks Chicharito's Last Record with Real Madrid
Kylian Mbappé has had an impressive individual start with Real Madrid, despite the challenges the "Merengues" have faced in La Liga. The Frenchman has consistently delivered, showcasing his talent on the field.
The former Paris Saint-Germain star made his La Liga debut against Real Betis, where he scored a brace that secured a victory for his team, marking his first goals in the Spanish league.
What’s particularly noteworthy is that with this performance, Mbappé broke a long-standing record at Real Madrid previously held by Javier "Chicharito" Hernández. The Mexican striker was the last player to score his first two goals for Real Madrid in a single match. Chicharito achieved this feat on September 20, 2024, during a match against Deportivo La Coruña, where he netted a double in an 8-2 victory.
It’s also worth mentioning that Mbappé’s very first goal for Real Madrid came during the UEFA Super Cup, where the team emerged victorious against Atalanta, with Mbappé scoring his debut goal for the fifteen-time European champions.
