Mbappe surpasses Ronaldo

Mbappe has an impressive scoring performance.

In the 70th minute of the match against Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid was awarded a free kick nearly 20 meters from the goal. Mbappe surprised everyone with a shot that hit the far corner of the goal, leaving Szczesny helpless. This was also the first time in his career that the French captain scored directly from a free kick.

Mbappe has scored 34 goals in all competitions for Real Madrid this season, surpassing Cristiano Ronaldo's 2009/10 record of 33 goals. The France captain is just three goals short of Ivan Zamorano's all-time record of 37 goals in 1992/93.

Statistics from the fanpage "When will Mbappe score from a free kick?" show that the player born in 1998 has spent 3,436 days since his professional career to celebrate his first free kick.

The 'Ninja Turtle's' moment of brilliance was not enough to help Real win the Copa del Rey. 'Los Blancos' drew 2-2 with Barcelona after 90 minutes and fell in the 116th minute of extra time, after a long-range shot from Jules Kounde.

Coach Carlo Ancelotti and his team lost all 3 times against Barca this season, including 2 finals (Copa del Rey, Spanish Super Cup). On the other hand, Barca increased their record of winning the King's Cup to 32 times. As for Hansi Flick, he maintained a 100% winning rate in the finals (7/7 championships).

Barca still has a chance to complete the "poker" of victories against Real, when the two teams meet in round 35 of La Liga on May 11. If they win, "Blaugrana" will almost certainly make their arch-rivals end the 2024/25 season empty-handed.
