Mbappe nets hat-trick as Real Madrid crush Kairat | OneFootball

Real Madrid produced a ruthless display at the Tsentralniy Almaty Stadium, sweeping aside Kairat with a resounding 5-0 victory in their second outing of the UEFA Champions League 2025/26 campaign.

It was a performance that underlined the Spanish giants’ attacking pedigree and tactical authority, as the Kazakh hosts found themselves thoroughly outclassed from start to finish.

Kylian Mbappé was the undoubted star of the evening, breaking the deadlock midway through the first half. The Frenchman coolly dispatched a penalty in the 25th minute, tucking the ball neatly into the bottom-left corner.

He went on to torment the Kairat defence throughout, completing his hat-trick with further strikes in the 52nd and 73rd minutes. Remarkably, his goals were supplied by contrasting sources: a pinpoint long ball from goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois and a neat pass from young Arda Güler, emphasising the breadth of Madrid’s creativity.

As the game wore on, Madrid’s dominance only deepened. Eduardo Camavinga added a fourth with a close-range header in the 83rd minute, before substitute Brahim Díaz rounded off proceedings in stoppage time, slotting home following Gonzalo García’s incisive assist.

For Madrid, this emphatic win not only secures another three points but also sends a statement of intent to the rest of the competition. For Kairat, meanwhile, it was a sobering reminder of the gulf in class at Europe’s top table.
