(CNN Spanish) — Kylian Mbappé could be Real Madrid’s next star signing, but while wearing the PSG shirt he shows no mercy to his rivals. He scored the decisive goal in the last moments of the Champions League match.
A goal from the Frenchman sealed PSG’s victory. Mbappé already has 32 goals in 52 Champions League games and had another good presentation.
Mbappé eluded the mark of three defenders and shot with certainty, without a chance for goalkeeper Courtois.
Neymar assisted the goal.

Real Madrid have everything to turn around the round of 16 series at the Santiago Bernabéu, especially since the away goal already counts in the event of a tie.
Lionel Messi, who played well, missed a penalty.
The second leg will be on March 9 at the Santiago Bernabéu stadium.
The previous confrontation between both teams was in the group stage of the Champions League in November 2019: a 2-2 draw in Madrid. In September of that year, the match in Paris for the same competition ended with a 3-0 win for PSG at home.
PSG is like a comfortable leader in French Ligue 1 with a Lionel Messi in great shape, while Real Madrid is also first in LaLiga, but closely escorted by Sevilla.
In the other match, Manchester City thrashed Sporting de Portugal.
