(VIDEO) Kylian Mbappé scores five minutes in against Barcelona in LaLiga
Kylian Mbappé was once again the main man in another Clásico clash with Barcelona, scoring an early goal that stunned the crowd at Montjuïc. The French striker found the net just five minutes in, confirming his role as a nightmare for the Catalans this LaLiga season.
Early penalty, clinical finish
The play started with a poor decision from keeper Wojciech Szczesny, who brought down an opponent inside the box. The ref pointed straight to the spot, and Mbappé stepped up without hesitation.
Cool as ever, the Frenchman placed the ball and smashed it low and hard into the right corner—no chance for Szczesny, who could only watch as it flew in and Mbappé celebrated with confidence.
Head-to-head with Lewandowski
With that goal, Mbappé now has 25 goals in his debut LaLiga season, drawing level with Barcelona’s Polish striker Robert Lewandowski in the top scorers’ chart. It’s just more proof of the instant impact he’s had in his first year with the Madrid side.
