Rodrygo came in urgently for Mbappé, who with a sad face left the Italian playing field on his own feet.35 minutes into the first half.

However, not everything was bad luck for Mbappé, because after scoring the historic goal, the French forward, who celebrated like Cristiano Ronaldo with his iconic “calm, calm”he caught up with another great French scorer, Thierry Henry, who also scored 50 goals in the Champions League. It should be noted that so far, in 22 games as a merengue, Kylian has scored 12 goals.

Mbbapé needed only 79 games to score his 50 goals and only Ruud Van Nistelrooy is above him, with 62; Leo Messi, with 66 and Robert Lewandowski, with 77. As if that were not enough, the striker became the second youngest player, at 25 years and 356 days, to reach this figure, after Lionel Messi in 2012, who did so at 24 years and 284 days.
