Kylian Mbappe has taken his tally to 29 goals in the 2024/25 La Liga campaign after scoring in Real Madrid’s 2-0 win over Sevilla. The French forward is now leading the race for the Pichichi award and is also a strong contender for the European Golden Boot. In doing so, Mbappe has surpassed Karim Benzema’s best-ever La Liga goal tally for Real Madrid. Benzema’s record stood at 27 goals, achieved during the 2021/22 season—a feat highlighted by Amazon Prime Video Sport’s French Instagram account. Benzema, however, did not seem pleased with the comparison. He responded in the comments section with a dismissive remark: *”So what? You need to dose it at some points primevideotahzeubi.”* His reaction suggests irritation at Mbappe breaking his record. The exchange has sparked discussions, with many interpreting Benzema’s comment as a sign of frustration over Mbappe stealing his spotlight. Mbappe, in his debut season with Real Madrid, has now set the highest goal-scoring record for any player in their first campaign with the club. Meanwhile, Mbappe continues to dominate headlines, not just for his goals but also for his on-field demeanor. In the same match against Sevilla, he refused to swap shirts with an opponent, a moment caught on camera. Fans have been divided over Benzema’s reaction. Some believe records are meant to be broken, while others see his response as unnecessary. One fan commented, *”Benz knows his friend would crack that record. Who doesn’t? Records are meant to be broken.”* Mbappe’s form has been crucial for Real Madrid this season, with supporters praising his impact. *”Kylian is carrying us right now, thank you Kylian,”* wrote one fan, reflecting the admiration for his performances. As the season nears its end, all eyes will be on whether Mbappe can add more goals to his tally and secure the Golden Boot. Meanwhile, Benzema’s reaction adds an intriguing subplot to what has been a stellar campaign for his compatriot.
