Kylian Mbappé's Champions League Journey Compared to Messi and Ronaldo After 100 Matches

Kylian Mbappé Joins Elite Group After 100 Champions League Games

Reaching 100 appearances in the Champions League, Kylian Mbappé has established himself as one of the competition’s most formidable players. His milestone came during Real Madrid's thrilling 4–3 comeback victory over Roma, where Mbappé scored the opening goal, marking his 72nd goal in these 100 matches on Europe's biggest stage.

It feels recent when Mbappé first broke onto the scene with Monaco in the 2016–17 season, netting his debut Champions League goal in a notable 5–3 win against Manchester City during the round of 16. Since moving to Paris Saint-Germain a year later, he has only strengthened his reputation among the greats in this tournament.

Though the Champions League trophy still eludes him, at just 27 years old, Mbappé has spent nearly a decade scoring regularly, keeping pace with some of the competition’s all-time top scorers through 100 games.
