Following Real Madrid’s commanding 5–0 victory over Kairat Almaty in the UEFA Champions League, the French forward gifted his #9 jersey to a young fan in a wheelchair—an act that captured the spirit of football beyond the game itself.
The image from the stadium in Almaty shows the child holding the signed jersey, surrounded by six individuals including two men in suits, two in sportswear, and one wearing a vest labeled “CHANNEL,” likely part of the media team. The stadium lights shine over empty seats, framing the emotional moment with quiet reverence. The child, clearly the center of attention, radiates joy as Mbappé’s gesture turns a routine post-match scene into something unforgettable.
On the field, Mbappé was unstoppable. He opened the scoring in the 25th minute with a penalty after Franco Mastantuono was brought down in the box. In the 52nd minute, he added a second with a delicate chip over the goalkeeper, assisted by a long ball from Thibaut Courtois. His third came in the 73rd minute—a thunderous strike from the edge of the area. Eduardo Camavinga made it 4–0 with a header in the 83rd minute, and Brahim Díaz capped the night with a close-range finish in stoppage time.
