Mbappe Joins All-Time Champions League Scorers List
Kylian Mbappe scored the opening goal for Real Madrid in their 2-1 victory over Inter Milan during a Champions League match. This goal, scored in the 14th minute, was Mbappe's 71st in 99 appearances in the competition, moving him joint-fifth on the all-time goalscorers list alongside Raul.
Only Karim Benzema (90), Robert Lewandowski (109), Lionel Messi (129), and Cristiano Ronaldo (140) have more goals. Real Madrid's second goal came in the 23rd minute due to a mistake by Inter's goalkeeper Josep Martinez, who lost possession after a back pass from Benjamin Pavard, allowing captain Federico Valverde to score.
Thibaut Courtois, making his 100th Champions League appearance, helped keep Inter at bay, while Inter's attempts included hitting the bar through Curtis Jones. The match showcased Real Madrid's efficiency and Inter's struggles, particularly in goalkeeping.
