Messi miss penalty as Mbappe scores

Leo Messi miss penalty in the second half as Mbappe scores to give PSG the edge in the first leg.

The game started with PSG on the front foot taking the game to Real Madrid.

The 13 time champions were on the back foot for most of the game and could barely get a shot on target.

Neymar was on the bench in the first half and Di Maria started upfront.

PSG continued where they left off in the second half and got a penalty when Mbappe was brought down.

Messi stepped up to take the penalty but missed the chance to put his team ahead.

That miss brought Madrid back to live as Benzema and Vinicius had a couple of chances but could not hit the target.

Neymar comes on and the game totally changed.

He caused the Madrid midfield a lot of trouble and got a couple of them into the ref’s books.

Time was running out and it looked like the game was going to end in a draw until the dying minutes.

Neymar passes to Mbappe who drives past three defenders to slot the goal past the goalkeeper.

Messi miss penalty but Mbappe was on the pitch to save his blushes one more time.

There have been rumors that Mbappe has agreed to to join Madrid at the end of the season.

However, with his current form the management might be looking to keep him by all means.

PSG would be going into the second leg with confidence and hoping they will be more clinical than the first leg.
