All of Kylian: Mbappé broke Real Madrid’s defense and gave PSG 1-0 in the last minute | VIDEO

A close game, like PSG vs. Real Madrid could only be defined with a stroke of genius… or two. In the closing, Neymar and Kylian Mbappé appeared, in that order, to confuse the defense of the visiting team. Inside the area, ‘Kiki’ resolved with the ball crossed to score 1-0 in the first leg of the Champions League round of 16.

Until then, the group trained by Mauricio Pochettino had tried everything and by all existing routes. Missed penalty from Lionel Messi, shots from Mbappé, Di María, Parades, Verratti, almost everyone. However, the defense or the enormous figure of Thibaut Courtois always responded to the height.

But, in the last breath, Neymar received on the three quarters of the field. The Brazilian dragged the mark of two men from Real Madrid. Immediately, with his back to the goal, number 10 put in a pass that broke everything: a backheel. Thus, the balloon was in the possession of Mbappé, who continued with the offensive action.

Lucas Vázquez squared off in front of Kylian, to prevent the advance. However, the daring of the Frenchman was vital to pass between the Madrid winger and Eder Militao. Overcoming both obstacles, Mbappé finished off the second post and on the way entered between the legs of Courtois for the 1-0 first leg.

PSG vs. Real Madrid: the match preview

Parisians and Madridistas will be the protagonists of the most awaited tie in the Champions League due to the enormous amount of ingredients it has. From the outset, both clubs arrive as absolute leaders in their respective championships.

In more, Lionel Messi will meet again against an old rival, after leaving Barcelona. Meanwhile, Kylian Mbappé will cross paths with the club that he has wanted for years. Not only that, the Frenchman ends his contract with ‘Les Bleus’ in June and would have everything agreed to reach the Santiago Bernabéu.

On his side, Real Madrid will arrive in the capital of France beaten by the recent results obtained. On Saturday he barely tied against Villarreal and has two draws in his last three league appearances. Previously, the merengue team was eliminated from the Copa del Rey.

As for the squad that traveled to Paris, Carlo Ancelotti has doubts about Karim Benzema’s participation. The French striker is feeling and it is possible that he does not have minutes. This will be decided before the contest, although the DT said he had good feelings about that matter.
