Not Messi, not Haaland: Mbappé scares World Cup rivals with this stunning goal

Kylian Mbappé is already in Club World Cup mode. The French forward left an impressive image before heading to the United States. A goal that has gone around the world and strikes fear into Real Madrid's rivals.

The stage was Valdebebas, in the last session before traveling to the competition. Mbappé received the ball on the left wing, controlled it with precision, cut inside with a short touch, and from outside the box, unleashed an unstoppable right-footed shot.

The shot was so powerful that the ball hit the crossbar twice as it went into the goal. A stunning goal that defines form, confidence, and hunger for titles wearing Real Madrid's jersey. A masterpiece that's going viral on social media.

Madrid is already in the United States

The goal, although it didn't come in an official match, served as a statement of intent. Real Madrid is already focused in the United States to compete in the new Club World Cup.

The debut will be on Wednesday, June 18 at 9:00 p.m. against Al-Hilal from Saudi Arabia. A rival with the financial backing of the Arab state and with great players in its squad.

Neither Leo Messi with Inter Miami nor Haaland with Manchester City are intimidating. It's Mbappé who arrives at the event in the spotlight and with the label of global star. The Frenchman is seeking his first major title as a Real Madrid footballer and doesn't want to miss the chance to make a big debut in the white jersey.

Xabi Alonso smiles, rivals tremble

Mbappé is quick, loose, electric. Every ball he touches creates danger. Xabi Alonso knows it and smiles at the opportunity to coach the best player in the world and fit him into his playing style to enhance his strengths.

That goal at Valdebebas is more than an isolated action, it's a warning.  Mbappé has already started his engines. When that happens, everything changes.

If anyone thought the Club World Cup is an unimportant competition, the Frenchman has made it clear he wants to win it. Real Madrid has its great scorer fired up. His name already inspires fear.
