Kylian Mbappé Makes Champions League History With an Incredible Record Only Messi Has Beaten
Kylian Mbappé has made Champions League history after reaching 100 goal contributions during Real Madrid’s dramatic 3-2 victory over AEK Athens on November 4.
The French superstar scored an important equaliser in the 78th minute as Real Madrid came from behind to secure another European victory.
However, his goal also helped him reach a remarkable personal milestone.
Mbappé has become the joint-second fastest player to reach 100 goal contributions in Champions League history, with only Lionel Messi achieving the feat quicker.
Mbappé reaches historic Champions League milestone
According to Opta, Mbappé has now recorded 100 direct goal contributions in just 102 Champions League appearances.
His impressive record includes:
74 goals
26 assists
102 Champions League matches
The achievement places the Real Madrid forward among the fastest players to reach this historic milestone.
At just 27 years old, Mbappé continues to establish himself as one of the most successful attacking players in Champions League history.
Only Lionel Messi reached 100 contributions faster
Despite Mbappé’s incredible record, Lionel Messi still holds the top position.
The Argentine legend needed just 101 matches to reach 100 goal contributions in the competition.
Mbappé reached the same milestone in 102 games, matching Robert Lewandowski’s achievement.
That means Messi remains the fastest player in Champions League history to reach 100 goal contributions, just one match ahead of Mbappé and Lewandowski.
Another incredible achievement for Mbappé
Mbappé’s goal against AEK Athens also extended his scoring streak to six consecutive Champions League matches.
He previously achieved the same record while playing for Paris Saint-Germain between November 2021 and September 2022.
Meanwhile, Federico Valverde scored a dramatic stoppage-time winner to secure Real Madrid’s 3-2 victory.
With 100 goal contributions in only 102 matches, Mbappé has reached another historic milestone, but Lionel Messi’s incredible record remains just out of his reach.
