Kylian Mbappe made Champions League history by scoring four goals as Real Madrid secured a 4-3 victory over Olympiacos in Greece. The performance marked the first time Mbappe achieved this feat in a single match. Real Madrid improved their position in the standings with the hard-fought win.
On November 26, 2025, Real Madrid traveled to Greece for a UEFA Champions League match against Olympiacos, resulting in a thrilling 4-3 victory for the Spanish side. Kylian Mbappe was the standout performer, netting all four of Real Madrid's goals and becoming the first player to score four in a single Champions League game for the club since Cristiano Ronaldo in 2015.
Mbappe's achievement places him in elite company. Ronaldo scored four goals against Malmo in Real Madrid's 8-0 win on December 8, 2015, his only such performance despite being the competition's all-time leading scorer. Lionel Messi has also reached four goals once, against Arsenal in a 4-1 win on April 6, 2010, and even scored five against Bayer Leverkusen on March 7, 2012. Mbappe's previous best was three goals, achieved twice with Paris Saint-Germain—against Club Brugge in 2019 and Barcelona in 2021—and once this season with Real Madrid against Kairat Almaty.
Before Mbappe's performance, only Alfredo Di Stefano and Ferenc Puskas had scored four goals for Real Madrid in a Champions League or European Cup match, each doing so twice in the 1950s and 1960s. At 26 years old, Mbappe now joins this select group at the Santiago Bernabeu club.
The win helps Real Madrid climb the 36-team table, though specific standings details were not provided. Olympiacos fought back but could not overcome Mbappe's brilliance in the high-scoring encounter.
