Because the Champions League tie-breaking rules prioritize goal difference, and there are many teams with the same points, every goal in every match can potentially determine the rankings. Therefore, a goal-scoring frenzy is inevitable; the last round of matches last season saw 64 goals scored in 18 games, an average of 3.5 goals per game.
Mbappé has already scored 11 goals, while the Champions League single-season scoring record, held by Cristiano Ronaldo, is 17 goals. If Real Madrid avoid the play-offs and reaches the final, Mbappé will have 8 more matches. If he has another prolific performance in this round, Mbappé will have an even greater chance of surpassing Cristiano Ronaldo's record.
