Mbappe Joins Elite Champions League Club With 14th Goal

Kylian Mbappe joined an elite group of Champions League goal scorers after finding the net in Real Madrid's 2-1 defeat to Bayern Munich. The Frenchman's 74th-minute strike brought his tally to 14 goals in the 2025-26 campaign, making him only the ninth player in history to reach this landmark.

The 27-year-old now sits sixth in the all-time Champions League goal rankings with 69 strikes in 97 appearances. Mbappe is chasing Ronaldo's record of 17 goals in a single campaign, needing just four more goals to surpass the legendary benchmark. Real Madrid faces Bayern Munich again next Wednesday at the Allianz Arena with the tie delicately poised at 2-1.
