Kylian Mbappé gave Real Madrid an all-important lifeline as he struck on the 74th minute against Bayern Munich on Tuesday night—and the goal was significant from a personal perspective as he joined an elite group of players to score 14 times in a single Champions League campaign.
The Frenchman’s goal proved a consolation on the night, as Madrid lost 2–1 to Bayern at the Bernabéu in the Champions League quarterfinal first leg. However, with just one goal in the tie, Los Blancos will travel to Munich for the return leg with a real sense that they can still progress to the final four.
