PARIS: Kylian Mbappe saved his team again, scoring a brilliant solo goal deep into injury time as Paris Saint-Germain beat Real Madrid 1-0 in the first leg of their Champions League last-16 match on Tuesday. Mbappe has rescued PSG many times with late goals in the French league this season — as recently as last Friday — and he did so again on the biggest stage. After taking a back-heeled pass from substitute Neymar in the fourth and final minute of injury time, Mbappe cut inside two players down the left and shot the ball between the legs of goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois.
It was a case of another 1-0 win, another clean sheet and another man-of-the-match performance for Aston Villa's loan ranger Frederic Guilbert who's once again alongside the likes of Lionel Messi in Ligue 1's team of the week.
