July 11, 2026Diego Herrera1 мин

Real Madrid's first-team players have etched their names in World Cup history this summer with their impressive performances in front of goal.

Their collective exploits during the North American showcase have led to a significant new record.

Notably, Kylian Mbappé, a key attacker for Los Blancos, recently made headlines once again. His goal in France's quarter-final victory over Morocco propelled his tournament tally to eight goals.

However, Mbappé is not the only Real Madrid player to have found the back of the net multiple times on the international stage.

Vinícius Júnior contributed four goals for Brazil, while Jude Bellingham matched this figure for England. Arda Güler also scored a goal for Türkiye during the group stages. This collective effort has resulted in a remarkable statistic highlighted by Opta:

Real Madrid players have scored 17 goals in the 2026 World Cup, setting a new record for a Spanish club in a single edition of the tournament. This surpasses the previous record of 16 goals set by FC Barcelona in the 1994 World Cup.
