When Kylian Mbappe is in good form, it is very difficult to stop the French striker.
Mbappe has 43 goals in all competitions in the 2023/24 season.
In the 59th minute at Stade du Moustoir – Lorient’s Yves Allainmat in round 29 of Ligue 1 in the morning of April 25 (Hanoi time), in an attack situation on the left side, Mbappe showed off his s𝓀𝒾𝓁𝓁ful personal technique, turning into a defender. Nathaniel Adjei became a “clown”.
After a series of moves like dancing with the ball, the French spearhead beat Adjei with a “thread the needle” phase, before stretching inside for teammate Ousmane Dembele to tap the ball into the goal to raise the score to 3-0.
The video of Mbappe performing a series of top technical moves immediately went viral on social networks. Users continuously praised the 2018 World Cup champion.
Journalist Julien Laurens exclaimed: “If you miss something, look at this ball. Mbappe is at the peak of his form. Superior personal technique. The best player in the world.”
PSG crushed the host with a score of 4-1, in which Mbappe’s assist for Dembele became the most notable highlight. In this match, the French striker also scored a double, bringing the total number of goals this season in all competitions to 43, the best achievement in his career.
Mbappe’s high form is a warning for Dortmund in the Champions League.
In the 2020/21 season, Mbappe scored 42 goals in all competitions. That seems to be a milestone that is difficult for the French striker to break. However, at the age of 25, the former AS Monaco striker upset all predictions. In his final year with PSG, Mbappe is showing his most explosive form.
The 3 points won against Lorient helped PSG consolidate their position at the top of the rankings, they have 69 points – 11 points more than the team chasing behind, AS Monaco. The Ligue 1 championship is almost firmly in the hands of Mbappe and his teammates.
More importantly, Mbappe’s impressive performance became a message to Borussia Dortmund. Next week, PSG will face the German representative in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League semi-finals. That was also the time when Dortmund had to face one of the highest performing strikers in the world today.
The better Mbappe is, the more worried PSG is. After the 2023/24 season ends, the French striker will part ways with the Paris capital club. Although coach Luis Enrique always affirms that “PSG must learn to live without Mbappe”, fans all know that it is difficult for the Parc des Princes team to find a replacement piece that is more classy than Mbappe.
