Two goals in two minutes has given PSG the advantage they need, and they once again prove how clinical they can be.

Those who used to compare Rashford to Mpabbe, should all be flogged. They are not mate in football. Rashford is just an average player, that will never reach Mpabbe's level.

Such a great performance from PSG..... Icardi played amazingly, and Mbappe was out of this world..... Imagine the scoreline with Neymar and Cavani and Di Maria not missing much chances

If PSG are doing this to Brugge who outplayed Madrid on the counter to a draw, imagine what will happen to Madrid on the return leg even if it is at Bernebau...

Hattrick and an assist in less than 30mns of play. Mbappe, I bet you, you'll go places. I'll beat my son all his life if he doesn't play football.

PSG without Neymar are nothing.....sike, they're just the same if not better. I reckon a front 3 of Di Maria, Mbappe and Icardi will do Neymar job easily. Neymar is definitely getting sold this summer.....
