Kylian Mbappé Scores Again! France Star Nets in 10th Straight Game as Les Bleus Extend Perfect Start to World Cup 2026 Qualifiers
Kylian Mbappé’s unstoppable form continues. The Real Madrid superstar found the net once again, marking his 10th consecutive game scoring for club and country, as France defeated Azerbaijan to maintain their flawless start to the 2026 World Cup qualifying campaign.
It was another night that showcased why Mbappé remains one of the most electrifying talents in world football — a player who not only delivers goals but inspires confidence every time he steps on the pitch.
⚽ A Goal Machine in Full Flow
In the first-half stoppage time, Mbappé produced a moment of magic that only he can.
Dancing past the Azerbaijani defenders with lightning footwork, he slotted the ball calmly into the bottom-right corner — his 53rd international goal for France.
That strike also marked his 17th goal of the season, as the 26-year-old has now scored in 12 of his 13 appearances for France and Real Madrid combined this term.
It’s a breathtaking run of consistency, especially considering Mbappé had been a doubt for the match due to a recent ankle issue. But the French captain showed no signs of slowing down — at least, not until he signaled to come off with eight minutes left on the clock, having already made his mark.
🇫🇷 Leader, Scorer, Creator
Mbappé’s influence extended beyond his own goal. In the 69th minute, he turned provider, delivering a perfect cross for Adrien Rabiot, who powered home a header to double France’s advantage.
The assist highlighted another side of Mbappé’s evolving game — his vision and teamwork.
Since being named France’s captain in 2023, he has not only led by example but also elevated the performance of those around him.
France’s comfortable win was later sealed by Florian Thauvin, making his first international appearance since 2019. The Lens midfielder fired in a beautiful left-footed finish to make it 3–0, wrapping up a memorable night for Les Bleus.
🌍 Mbappé vs. Haaland vs. Kane: The Battle of Europe’s Elite
While Mbappé continues to dazzle, the race to be Europe’s top scorer remains fierce.
-
Erling Haaland (Manchester City & Norway) – 18 goals in 11 appearances
-
Harry Kane (Bayern Munich & England) – 18 goals in 10 appearances
-
Kylian Mbappé (Real Madrid & France) – 17 goals in 13 appearances
All three have scored in all but one game they’ve played this season — an incredible show of consistency from football’s new-age superstars.
Haaland stole headlines last month with five goals in Norway’s 11–1 rout of Moldova, taking his total to nine in World Cup qualification.
Kane, meanwhile, is dominating the Bundesliga, having scored 11 goals in just six matches, comfortably topping Germany’s scoring charts.
But Mbappé holds his own in Europe’s biggest competition — the UEFA Champions League — where he leads the scoring race with five goals in two matches, ahead of Kane (4) and Haaland (3).
🏆 The Most Prolific Start of His Career
At 26, Mbappé is not just in his prime — he’s redefining it.
This season marks the most prolific start of his professional career, both for club and country.
Since his blockbuster move to Real Madrid, Mbappé has seamlessly adapted to life in Spain, quickly becoming the focal point of Carlo Ancelotti’s attacking setup. Combined with his performances for France, it’s clear he’s on a mission — one that could see him crowned as the world’s best once again.
💬 The Night Belonged to Mbappé
Though Thauvin’s return and Rabiot’s header added sparkle to France’s 3–0 win, there was no doubt about the headline act.
It was Kylian Mbappé’s night — the captain, the scorer, the creator, and the inspiration for a French team determined to reclaim world glory.
As Les Bleus continue their march toward the 2026 FIFA World Cup, Mbappé’s relentless drive and form could be the key to taking France all the way.
