Paris Saint Germain 1 - 0  Real Madrid Kylian Mbappe scored a stunning stoppage-time goal as Paris St-Germain beat Real Madrid in the first leg of their last-16 tie. The France striker, linked with a move to Real in the summer, received the ball on the left from a clever backheel by Neymar, and got between two defenders inside the box before slotting through Thibaut Courtois' legs to send the Parc des Princes crazy. It was a dramatic finish to a game that had looked set to end in frustration for PSG. This was all after Lionel Messi saw his penalty saved just after the hour mark. The successful strike was Mbappe's 22nd in another incredible season for the youngster. His performance will surely have only served to enhance Real's desire for him to be leading their line next term.
