Kylian Mbappé made Real Madrid history with his hat trick against Barcelona, according to Sports Illustrated.

In a must-win El Clásico for Real Madrid, Mbappé was the only player in white to get on the scoresheet. The Frenchman converted from the penalty spot just five minutes into the match and then exploited Barcelona's high line to score his next two goals at the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys.

The hat trick was not enough to secure Real Madrid the victory, but it did put the France captain in the club's history books. Mbappé has now put together the greatest debut campaign in Real Madrid history. The forward has scored 39 goals in his first season in a white shirt, surpassing Iván Zamorano's previous record of 37.

Zamorano's record stood for 32 years at Real Madrid. Not even the greatest goalscorer in club history, Cristiano Ronaldo, could overtake the Chilean in the goalscoring charts. Mbappé did so, though, and he still has three more games to increase his lead over Zamorano.

Mbappé also leads the Pichichi race in La Liga; the 26-year-old has 27 league goals to his name, two more than Barcelona's Robert Lewandowski. Even if Real Madrid cannot mount a comeback in the La Liga title race, the individual achievement would be a worthy consolation prize for Mbappé.

Along with his La Liga haul, Mbappé recorded seven goals in the Champions League. The 26-year-old also found the back of the net in the UEFA Super Cup, the FIFA Intercontinental Cup, the Spanish Super Cup and twice in the Copa del Rey.

Only Mbappé and Karim Benzema have scored in six competitions for Real Madrid in a single season. If Mbappé goes on to have a similar career to Benzema at the club, then there are plenty more records coming for the 26-year-old in the future.
