Woeful Real Madrid stats prove Kylian Mbappe and PSG deserved late winner

dailystar.co.uk:

Real Madrid failed to show any ambition whatsoever in their 1-0 defeat by Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League on Tuesday night.PSG will take a one-goal advantage into the second leg of the last-16 tie in Madrid after Kylian Mbappe scored a dramatic winner in the 94th minute at the Parc des Princes.Mbappe’s goal proved decisive after Thibaut Courtois produced an impressive save to deny Lionel Messi from the penalty spot in the second half.The 23-year-old striker, who is out of contract with PSG in July and strongly-linked with a move to Real, was the clear star of the show.He collected Neymar’s back-heel on the left wing and skipped in between two Real defenders before slotting underneath Courtois via a slight deflection off Fede Valverde.His 22nd goal of the season – and second consecutive late winner following a 93rd-minute striker against Rennes on Friday – was well deserved.Mauricio Pochettino's side completely dominated the game, firing in 21 shots – eight of which were on target, for an expected goals tally of 1.87 – from their 57 per cent possession.By contrast, Real attempted just three shots in total and did not force Gianluigi Donnarumma into making a single save.HAVE YOUR SAY!

Which team will make it through to the quarter-finals? Comment below.Their efforts translated into a measly expected goals tally of 0.14, while they only managed to win one corner and produced just four counter attacks all game.With the away goals rule abolished from Champions League knockout ties, Real manager Carlo Ancelotti appeared happy to settle for a goalless draw from the outset.However, Mbappe’s late impact means they will start with a disadvantage in the second leg at the Bernabeu on March 9.Want to be on the ball with.
