Kylian Mbappe scored a club-record 201st goal for Paris Saint-Germain in a 4-2 win over Nantes.
He had to wait until the 92nd minute but was clinical when he turned to finish left-footed and away from Edinson Cavani at the top of the PSG goal list.
The France forward, who turned 24 in December, has established himself as a football superstar.
He has played in two World Cup finals, won the trophy in 2018 and won the Golden Boot as top scorer in 2022.
Mbappe, who won the 2021 Nations League with his country, scored a hat-trick in December’s World Cup final against Argentina, which France lost on penalties after a 3-3 draw.
Since joining PSG from Monaco in 2017 for a world-record fee for a teenager, Mbappe has won four Ligue 1 titles and topped the scoring charts in each division for the past four seasons.
This season, the forward has now scored 30 goals and made eight assists – taking his total for the club to 85 in 247 appearances.
PSG took a 2-0 lead at the Parc des Princes before Lionel Messi opened the scoring after Javon Hadzum’s own goal.
However, Nantes were back level before half-time with goals from Ludovic Blas and Ignatius Ganago, PSG goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma’s first caught out at the near post which led to the second.
Mbappe headed the home side back on the hour mark before Danilo Pereira’s crowning moment came late in the game.
