With a double against Real Sociedad in the second leg of the round of 16 of the Champions League, Mbappe had an admirable achievement.
This morning (March 6) in the second leg of the Champions League round of 16, Mbappe shined brilliantly with a double goal to help PSG win against the Spanish representative, Real Sociedad.
The above two goals helped Kylian Mbappe become the first player in the top 5 European leagues to directly participate in more than 40 goals in all competitions this season. Kylian Mbappe has the second highest number of UCL knockout away goals with 13 goals, only behind Cristiano Ronaldo.
Mbappe’s performance is clearly shown through the numbers with 2 goals, 2 big opportunities created – 3 shots on target, 76% accurate passes, winning the most duels (9 ). All of the above helped Mbappe become the best player in the match.
Speaking after the impressive performance, Kylian Mbappe said: “We know we cannot be subjective, 2-0 is an unsafe score, if they open the score they will join the audience. We had to immediately crush their hopes and we did. We are very happy to be back in the quarterfinals.”
Kylian Mbappe: “I still want to play in the Champions League, it’s a very important tournament. I always try to show off. Sometimes I can do it, sometimes I can’t. I will never be a hidden player! ”
Mbappe also dispelled rumors of conflicts with coach Enrique: “How are you and the coach? Very good, very good! There’s no problem with him, even if people might think otherwise. I have a lot of problems but not the coach.”
After two seasons of being eliminated in the round of 16 of the Champions League, this season Mbappe and his teammates broke that barrier and entered the quarterfinals of the C1 Cup. Who knows, in a season without many top stars, PSG will make a surprise in the European arena.
