Real Madrid scored four second-half goals in the 5-0 win over FC Kairat in Matchday 2 of the Champions League. They currently sit second in the league with two wins in two games.
Kylian Mbappe will steal the headlines, scoring a hat-trick and taking his tally to 13 goals in nine games this season. He also notched his 60th Champions League goal, taking him to No.6 in the all-time leading scorers in the competition.

However, the Frenchman was not the only one to reach a milestone. Eduardo Camavinga came on in the 80th minute to replace Aurélien Tchouaméni. Three minutes later, he scored the fourth goal for Los Blancos, resulting in a milestone opposite to Mbappe's.

Incredibly, Eduardo Camavinga's 83rd-minute header was his first-ever goal in the Champions League. The Frenchman is not known for his goal-scoring qualities, but it will come as a surprise to many that the goal against FC Kairat was his first in the UCL (per Transfermarkt).
The 22-year-old's appearance against FC Kairat was his 46th in Europe's elite competition, 42 of which were in the white shirt of Madrid, and four for his former team, Stade Rennais. During that time, he had five assists but failed to contribute a goal during the 2024-25 campaign.

The goal was also only his fifth for the club, his last coming in April 2025 in the 1-0 La Liga win over Alaves. He also scored in the Copa del Rey match in January against Minera. That was his first goal in over two years, which he scored in March 2022 against Real Sociedad.
Injuries and playing in deeper roles have resulted in a lack of goals, but Camavinga has had enough chances to score more frequently. However, at just 22, there are still plenty more opportunities for him to add to his record.

The energetic midfielder has just returned from an injury that derailed the start of his season. However, there were plenty of rumors around the summer suggesting that Camavinga could be on his way out of the club.
Head coach Xabi Alonso has never mentioned a departure, and if he can add goals to his long list of qualities, then he could be a vital player for Los Blancos. With him moving to Madrid at such a young age, it feels like he has been at the club forever. Lucky for the white team, he has many years left, and his best years may still be ahead.
