Mbappé Equals Ronaldo’s Real Madrid Single-Year Record With 59th Goal

The 27-year-old’s late penalty sealed a 2-0 win over Sevilla to send Real Madrid into the winter break a point behind Barcelona.

Overview

  • Mbappé converted an 86th-minute spot kick to reach 59 goals for Real Madrid in the 2025 calendar year, matching Cristiano Ronaldo’s 2013 club mark.
  • He celebrated with Ronaldo’s signature “Siu” and called equalling his idol an honour, while Ronaldo acknowledged the milestone on social media.
  • Jude Bellingham opened the scoring with a first-half header, and Sevilla finished with 10 men after Marcão’s second yellow; VAR later overturned two additional Madrid penalties.
  • Mbappé’s 59th goal came in his 59th club match of 2025, and his season tally stands at 29 in 24 games, including a LaLiga-leading 18; he has 73 goals in 83 matches since joining in 2024.
  • The victory kept Real Madrid second in LaLiga, one point off Barcelona, and with no further fixtures in 2025, any chance to surpass the record shifts to 2026.
