In Matchweek 17 of La Liga, Real Madrid defeated Sevilla 2-0 at home, with Kylian Mbappé scoring from the penalty spot in the club’s final game of the year.
With this goal, he also equaled Cristiano Ronaldo’s record of 59 goals scored for Real Madrid in a single calendar year.
After the match, Mbappé posted a photo album on social media. Two of the photos showed him performing Ronaldo’s iconic SIU celebration after scoring in this game, while another was a childhood photo of himself with Ronaldo. He captioned the post, “Believe in your dreams. Salute to you 👑🐐”.
