Is there a record that Kylian Mbappé will leave alone before his departure from Paris Saint-Germain? This Sunday against the amateurs of Revel, in the 32nd final of the Coupe de France, the Parisian number 7 greatly contributed to the 9-0 victory of the Rouges et Bleus by scoring a hat-trick before the 50th minute (16th, 45th, 48th) .
Three goals which brought his total of goals in the competition to 30 with Paris. While he was, before kick-off, one unit behind François M’Pelé (28 goals), Mbappé quickly matched, overtook and distanced himself from the former Parisian striker. A total that the Parisian has reached in 22 matches in the Parisian jersey since the 2017-2018 season.
Including two goals with AS Monaco, his total in the competition rises to 32, which places him among the best scorers in the history of the oldest event, even if such an official ranking is difficult to establish. According to data from the Transfermarkt site, which lists scorers since the 1933-34 season, i.e. 16 years after the creation of the Coupe de France, Mbappé would be the 5th top scorer in the history of the competition, behind M’Pelé (34 goals), Bernard Lacombe (39), Delio Onnis and Michel Platini (44).
If there could be any doubt about his presence for this match, Luis Enrique brushed aside the question at a press conference: “Kylian Mbappé wanted to play and when he wants to play, we don’t have much to do. say, he said. The rest, we just have to watch it and take pleasure in seeing it, whether it’s the technical staff, the public and the opponents, quite simply. »
With Paris, he notably scored a quintuple in the Coupe de France against Pays de Cassel last season (7-0). Before the one against Revel, he had already scored two hat-tricks against Vannes in 2022 (4-0) and Lyon in 2020 (5-1). He also boasts 6 doubles.
