Drawn: 1

Mbappe has tackled Barcelona on eight occasions during his professional career, and in his first-ever appearance against the Catalan outfit, he struck a famous hat trick.

Indeed, the ex-Monaco youngster netted three times against the La Liga giants in the first leg of their Champions League last-16 affair back in 2021, with Paris Saint-Germain recording a 4-1 victory at Camp Nou.

Mbappe then netted once in the return leg in Paris, with the French giants drawing 1-1 in order to advance to the quarter-finals of the competition courtesy of a 5-2 aggregate success.

The Frenchman played the full 90 minutes against Barcelona in the first leg of their European Cup quarter-final on April 10, 2024, but he found it difficult to make his mark in a 3-2 loss for the Paris giants.

Mbappe starred in the reverse game, though, netting twice as PSG recorded a 4-1 victory to advance to the semi-finals.

The forward will not have fond memories from his first El Clasico in October 2024, as he had a goal disallowed in a 4-0 Real Madrid defeat, with Robert Lewandowski scoring twice in a statement victory for Hansi Flick's side in La Liga.

Mbappe did score against Barcelona in the final of the Spanish Super Cup in January 2025, but his Real Madrid side were beaten 5-2 by the Catalan team.

Real Madrid then lost 3-2 to Barcelona in the final of the Copa del Rey in April 2025, but the forward did get his name on the scoresheet, coming off the bench to register.

Mbappe hit a hat trick against Barcelona in La Liga in May 2025, making it 11 goals in eight appearances against the Catalan side, but he could not prevent his side from suffering a 4-3 defeat.
