👑 Four-goal UCL night sees Mbappé eclipse Real Madrid legends | OneFootball

Another night, another moment for France and Real Madrid superstar Kylian Mbappé.

Amid questions of dissension in the ranks at the Bernabeu under Xabi Alonso, the Spanish giants needed a performance this evening away from home against Olympiacos, and Los Blancos have done just that as they lead 4-2 with 30 minutes remaining.

It looked to be a frustrating night on the cards when the Greek side made it 1-0 in just the 8th minute through Chiquinho, before the mercurial Frenchman took matters into his own hands.

A seven-minute hat-trick (22', 24', 29') immediately rewrote the script well before the halftime whistle, and, with that, Mbappé (15) had eclipsed Real Madrid legend Ronaldo (Nazário) for goals in the Champions League (13) while also surpassing Karim Benzema (4) for hat-tricks in the competition with his fifth across the competition.

This became even more noteworthy as it was the second-fastest hat-trick in UCL history, behind Liverpool's Mohamed Salah.

To further cement his status among the game's greats, Mbappé went on to score a fourth after the break to take his account to 64, more Champions League goals than Samuel Eto'o and Wayne Rooney combined (60).

One final stat? Mbappé now has 89 goal contributions in 83 starts in the Champions League.

Just ridiculous.
