Kylian Mbappé is a man on a mission. On Tuesday night, the star forward delivered a stunning performance for Real Madrid in the Champions League, netting a quick-fire hat-trick against Kaïrat Almaty in a commanding 5-0 victory.
However, despite the triumph, Mbappé’s expression was far from jubilant as he left the pitch visibly annoyed.
The French superstar has an insatiable appetite for success. While his hat-trick was impressive, he couldn’t shake off the feeling that he could have done even better. “It’s normal for me to be frustrated with my mistakes,” he told reporters after the match.
“A player like me, having five chances, should score five goals. That’s why Real Madrid signed me. Three goals are great, but I could have bagged more. I’ll be working hard to improve my finishing in front of goal.”
14 Goals in 12 Matches… Not Bad
His words reflect the high standards that the 2018 World Cup champion sets for himself. With an astonishing tally of 14 goals in just 12 matches across all competitions this season, Mbappé is determined to leave his mark in Madrid’s storied history—yet he remains relentlessly ambitious and never settles for less.
With such a mindset, Real Madrid has every reason to feel optimistic. Mbappé is not just a goal-scoring machine; he is also a player who constantly seeks to better himself. Fans can only imagine the heights he might reach as he continues to strive for perfection on the pitch.
