After suffering what was a humiliating defeat against Atlético Madrid in LaLiga, Real Madrid found redemption in the Champions League during their visit to Kairat Almaty, where they cruised to a win with Kylian Mbappé stealing the show.

Mbappé Hat-Trick Keeps Him on Fire

The French forward delivered a hat-trick to guide the 5-0 victory during the long trip to Kazakhstan, a trio of goals that continued his scoring streak in every match he played in September, both for club and country.

Kylian Mbappé is perhaps the forward performing at the highest level right now, having scored against Ukraine, Iceland, Real Sociedad, Olympique Marseille, Espanyol, Levante, Atlético Madrid, and now three against Kairat Almaty.

During this stretch, he has netted both a brace and a hat-trick, further confirming the outstanding form he is enjoying, making him Real Madrid’s top scorer and a key player in the Champions League 2025 campaign.

Real Madrid Responds with a Rout of Kairat Almaty: Mbappé Hat-Trick Secures Champions League Wins

Real Madrid bounced back from their first defeat in LaLiga 2025 with a commanding 5-0 victory over Kairat Almaty in Kazakhstan, highlighted by a spectacular hat-trick from Kylian Mbappé and goals from Eduardo Camavinga and Brahim Díaz, securing a perfect start in the first two rounds of the 2025/26 UEFA Champions League.

After the painful 5-2 loss to Atlético Madrid, the team opened the scoring with a penalty converted by Mbappé in the 25th minute. The French forward completed his hat-trick in the second half with goals in the 52nd and 73rd minutes, reaching 60 goals in Champions League history and extending his scoring streak this season, with 13 goals in 9 matches.

Real Madrid showed clear dominance over Kairat Almaty, who initially resisted but were eventually overwhelmed, conceding five goals and potentially facing more. Camavinga, scoring his first Champions League goal, added the fourth in the 83rd minute, while Brahim Díaz sealed the rout in stoppage time, marking a historic triumph in Kazakhstan.
