Paris Saint-Germain's four-goal spree completely overwhelmed Barcelona, securing a stunning comeback victory.

In the first leg, Mbappé had a lackluster performance, failing to convert any of his three attempts on target and providing no assists, leaving him frustrated as PSG suffered a home defeat.

However, Mbappé rose to the occasion in the away leg, scoring two goals, including a penalty kick, and playing a crucial role in PSG's triumph.

Mbappé emerged as one of Paris Saint-Germain's key contributors, earning the highest rating of 9.1 in the post-match evaluation.

In Ligue 1, he leads the goal-scoring charts with 24 goals in 26 appearances, securing the league's golden boot without question.

In the Champions League, Mbappé's performance has been equally impressive, as evidenced by his ascent to the top of the tournament's goal-scoring charts with 8 goals in 10 appearances.

Mbappé faces stiff competition from Harry Kane and Erling Haaland in the race for the Champions League Golden Boot, with Kane scoring 7 goals and Haaland 6.

This season presents Mbappé with perhaps his best chance to win the Ballon d'Or. 

Champion League trophy? a goodbye present from Mbappe to PSG?

If he can lead Paris Saint-Germain to Champions League glory while also achieving success domestically and claiming the title of top goal scorer in Europe, his chances of winning the Ballon d'Or will be extremely high.
