Mbappe scored twice in Madrid's 2-1 comeback win over Villarreal on Saturday to take his tally to 31 goals in all competitions this season one more than Brazil striker Ronaldo managed in his first campaign at the club. It also helped Madrid open up a three-point lead atop the Spanish league over Barcelona, which has played two games less.

With a brace against Villarreal, Kylian Mbappe surpassed a Ballon d'Or winner's milestone at Real Madrid, closing in on Cristiano Ronaldo's record.
