Mbappe scores brace in El Clasico to reach 100 Real Madrid goals in 116 games
Synopsis
Kylian Mbappe reached 100 Real Madrid goals in just 116 matches — at Camp Nou, in El Clasico, with a brace — then told reporters the milestone 'is not that important.' With 59 goals in a calendar year equalling Ronaldo's club record, back-to-back Pichichi trophies, and the World Cup all-time scoring record, Mbappe is building a case that no landmark quite captures what he is doing at Real Madrid right now.

Kylian Mbappe reached 100 goals for Real Madrid in his 116th appearance for the club on 26 October 2026, marking the milestone with a brace at Camp Nou that sealed a victory over Barcelona in El Clasico. The French forward, characteristically understated, insisted the landmark was secondary to the team result.
Mbappe's 100 in his own words
'I'm very happy. Everyone knows that I like scoring goals and helping the team in that way. But I think this is just a detail because the most important thing is the team's victory and the group effort,' Mbappe said after the match. 'This victory will give the group a lot of confidence, and there will be many more goals, so it's not that important,' he added.
On the collective effort, he said: 'The protagonist of the match is the team and the group because we knew we had to play a strong game, but also a team game. We prepared well in the last few matches because we won and played well. We came in with a good mindset, and we gave it our all.'
How the 100 goals break down
Mbappe's 100 goals for Real Madrid are spread across competitions: 67 in La Liga, 25 in the UEFA Champions League, 4 in the Copa del Rey, 2 in the Club World Cup, 1 in the UEFA Super Cup, and 1 in the Spanish Super Cup. He opened his Real Madrid account in the UEFA Super Cup final against Atalanta in the 2024/25 season.
By season, his goal tally reads: 44 in his debut campaign, 42 last season, and 14 so far in the current season — a rate that places him among the most prolific strikers in the club's history.
Record-breaking context
Mbappe's arrival at Real Madrid has been accompanied by a string of individual records. In 2025, he equalled Cristiano Ronaldo's record as the top scorer for Real Madrid in a calendar year, netting 59 goals. He has since claimed the 2024/25 Golden Boot and back-to-back Pichichi Trophies in 2024/25 and 2025/26, and was the leading scorer in the most recent Champions League campaign.
On the international stage, Mbappe became the all-time top scorer at the FIFA World Cup during the last edition, surpassing previous records with 22 goals for France.
Why this Clasico milestone stands out
Reaching a century of goals at Camp Nou — historically hostile territory — adds a symbolic dimension to the landmark. Notably, Mbappe reached 100 goals considerably faster than many predecessors in the famous white jersey, needing only 116 matches. The timing, in an El Clasico context, also gives the milestone additional weight in the title race narrative. Whether Madrid can sustain this form as the season enters its critical phase will depend heavily on Mbappe continuing the consistency he has shown since joining the club.
Point of View
The pace at which he hit 100 already invites comparison with Ronaldo and Raul in a way that pure modesty cannot fully suppress. More telling is the context: a brace at Camp Nou, in El Clasico, at a moment when the La Liga title race is live. The real question mainstream coverage undersells is sustainability — Mbappe's first two seasons produced 44 and 42 goals respectively, but European elite forwards historically see regression as opponents accumulate tactical data. Whether his current 14-goal start is a sign of continued dominance or a slight moderation will define the second half of this season.
