EA FC 25 simulation shows who is the fastest striker between Erling Haaland and Kylian Mbappé

Kylian Mbappé and Erling Haaland can barely be separated in terms of quality, and a simulator has shown that there is little between their speeds too.

The two forwards are considered to be the next great football rivalry with christian ronaldo and Lionel Messi Both now play outside of Europe.

Haaland has established himself as a goal-scoring machine, having played for Molde, Red Bull Salzburg, Borussia Dortmund and now city ​​of manchester.

Meanwhile, Mbappé, winner of the 2018 World Cup, achieved a pass to real Madrid in the summer having become Paris Saint GermainRecord scorer with 256 goals.

Fans regularly debate who is the best player, with many preferring Mbappé's technical skills, while others prefer HaalandIt's a deadly ending.

Both men use their speed and power to great effect, with their blistering pace being a key aspect of finding the back of the net.

But who is faster?

Good TikTok user @awesomepcgames has gone to great lengths to find out, pitting the pair against each other in a unique simulated race in the EA FC 25 video game.

The race started from the edge of the box and ended at the opposite end.

Haaland and Mbappe Both have a game score of 91, but the latter has 97 pace on his card, a big difference compared to the Norwegian's 88.

However, Mbappé managed to catch up with the 24-year-old at the halfway line, with almost nothing separating them as they approached the 18-yard line.

And it was Mbappé who almost came out on top, arriving home in 8.33 seconds, just ahead of Haaland, who clocked a time of 8.57.

While Mbappé may have emerged victorious in the simulated race, it is Haaland who has performed statistically better on the field.

The former Monaco striker has struggled for consistency with Los Blancos, but has still scored eight goals in 15 games in all competitions.

Haaland has played the same number of games, but has scored 14 times, three of them in the Champions League, compared to one for Mbappé.

However, it is Mbappé who could surpass Haaland to 50 goals in the main European competition, as he has 49 goals, one goal ahead of the Citizens' top scorer.

And Mbappe, who is a year older than Haaland, looks set to reach 300 club goals first, with the six-time Ligue 1 winner five goals away and Haaland 41 behind.

But one thing is certain: both men will continue to be compared to each other in the years to come and will likely compete for major personal and club honours.
