Kylian Mbappe lit up the Champions League last 16 on Tuesday night as he scored a stunning solo effort to steer Paris Saint-Germain to victory over Real Madrid.
The first leg looked destined to end goalless in the French capital after Madrid had frustrated PSG for much of the match.
Lionel Messi had missed the best chance when he saw his penalty saved by Thibaut Courtois, who had also denied Mbappe on a couple of occasions.
However, the French attacker, who has been heavily linked with a move to Madrid this summer, had the last laugh as he collected the ball from Neymar in the 94th minute before bursting between two defenders and slotting his finish underneath the keeper.

PSG will now take their 1-0 lead into the second leg at the Bernabeu in March as they continue their quest to win the Champions League for the first time ever.
