Kylian Mbappé bags second-fastest UCL hat-trick

Real Madrid’s Kylian Mbappé completed the second-fastest Champions League hat-trick in history, scoring three goals in six minutes and 42 seconds during a thrilling 4-3 victory over Olympiacos on November 26, 2025.

According to a report from UEFA.com, Real Madrid forward Kylian Mbappé made European history on Wednesday, November 26, 2025, by netting the second-fastest UEFA Champions League hat-trick of all time during his club’s 4-3 victory over Olympiacos.

MbappĂ©’s sensational performance saw him register a treble in an astonishing six minutes 42 seconds against the Greek side.

The article details that only one player has achieved the feat faster: Mohamed Salah, whose record, timed at six minutes 12 seconds (listed as 7 minutes overall), came for Liverpool against Rangers on October 12, 2022.

Mbappé’s rapid treble edged out the previous third-fastest recorded, scored by Bafétimbi Gomis in eight minutes back in 2011.

This explosive display marks MbappĂ©’s second Champions League hat-trick of the current 2025/26 season, matching the achievement of other legendary players, including Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi, who have also scored two trebles in one campaign.

It elevates his overall Champions League hat-trick tally to five (two for Paris Saint-Germain, three for Real Madrid), placing him fifth on the all-time list, behind the eight registered by both Messi and Ronaldo.

The 2024/25 season set a new overall record for the most UEFA Champions League hat-tricks in a single season, reaching 12.

With this latest feat, MbappĂ© also contributed to Olympiacos’ unfortunate record, as they have now conceded the most Champions League trebles in history with seven.

The report confirms that scoring a hat-trick at the pinnacle of European club football “is an immense achievement for the elite performers.”
