Mbappe's dad scores like Ronaldo

Taking advantage of an exquisite play by Eden Hazard, the Belgian international who recently retired from professional football, Wilfried dashed towards the goal, demonstrating the origins of Kylian's striking instincts.

Illustrating a masterclass to his son, the 53-year-old elegantly sat the goalkeeper down with a shimmy before coolly slotting the ball home, increasing the tally for Varietes CF against Team Calais, per talkSPORT.

Here is the video:

How Kylian reacted to his dad's goal

Despite the clear demonstration of the Mbappe senior's lethal efficiency in front of the goal, Kylian humorously celebrated his father's performance on social media, drawing a witty parallel to Ronaldo.

The 24-year-old jokingly quipped, "Your Cameroonian version is ready," in reference to his dad, and playfully appended a laughing emoji, encapsulating the lighthearted banter between the two.

Hazard dazzles in charity game

During the same event, Eden Hazard displayed a remarkable performance that left spectators questioning why he prematurely declared his retirement from the professional football scene, witnessing his captivating display in a charity match.

As noted by Sports Brief, despite his recent retirement announcement, the Belgian maestro resurfaced on the field just a week later, participating in the Yellow Pieces charity match, dedicated to covering the medical expenses of children and adolescents.

Playing for team Varietes CF against team Calais, Hazard demonstrated precisely why his fans were reluctant to accept his early retirement. The skilful Belgian not only scored once but netted an impressive five goals during the game, showcasing his enduring prowess.

Kylian visits his father's homeland

Earlier, Sports Brief reported that in July of this year, Kylian Mbappe, the 2018 FIFA World Cup champion, made his way to Yaoundé, Cameroon, for a brief three-day trip to the Central African nation.

Accompanied by his father, Wilfried Mbappe, the Paris Saint-Germain forward was welcomed with enthusiastic cheers from both fans and officials upon their arrival in the Cameroonian capital.

During his visit, Mbappe is scheduled to embark on a tour across the country, participating in various activities and engaging with reporters and authorities in a series of planned events.
