The Mbappé ⚔️ Haaland rivalry keeps making football history 🤩 | OneFootball

We haven't forgotten you...

A few years ago, the Kylian Mbappé vs Erling Haaland duel was seen as the future head-to-head at the top of world football.

But lately, both strikers have slipped a bit down the hierarchy. This is due to inconsistent form and the rise of some prodigies, like Lamine Yamal and Désiré Doué.

Yet, this week Erling Haaland joined Kylian Mbappé... in the history of 21st-century football. Yes!

By scoring against Juventus in the Club World Cup on Thursday night, the Norwegian became, at 24 years and 340 days, the second youngest player since 2000 to reach the milestone of 300 career goals; just behind the captain of Les Bleus, who achieved this feat at 24 years and 333 days.

Will we ever see both of them together again on the Ballon d'Or podium?
