Kylian Mbappé Scores a Hat-Trick to Lead Real Madrid to Victory Over Man City
Kylian Mbappé delivered a masterclass performance, netting a hat-trick to lead Real Madrid to a 3-1 victory over Manchester City in the Champions League knockout stage.
This triumph at the Santiago Bernabéu secured a 6-3 aggregate win, propelling Los Blancos into the last 16.
Mbappé’s first goal came just four minutes into the match, showcasing his composure with a delicate lob over City’s goalkeeper, Ederson.
He added a second in the 33rd minute, and completed his hat-trick in the second half, bringing his career totals to 359 goals and 142 assists.
At 26 years and 61 days old, Mbappé has become the youngest player to reach 500 goal contributions, surpassing the records previously held by Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.
Throughout the match, Mbappé drew inspiration from his idols, emulating Cristiano Ronaldo’s signature celebration after his first goal and later replicating Lionel Messi’s iconic gesture following his hat-trick.
Real Madrid’s manager, Carlo Ancelotti, praised Mbappé’s outstanding display, while club legend Zinedine Zidane was seen applauding from the stands.
Despite a late consolation goal from City’s Nico González, the Premier League side couldn’t overcome the deficit, marking another challenging European night for manager Pep Guardiola.
Former English footballer, Jamie Redknapp, makes bold suggestion regarding Mohamed Salah to leave the club, Liverpool.
The suggestion came after Liverpool manager Arne Slot criticized the player — a move Redknapp called out following Salah’s benching in the last match.
The former player shared “I don’t necessarily think in January. I just think we have got to let this settle. But I don’t foresee that he will see out the two years of his contract. I think it might be more in the summer.”
Arsenal football manager Mikel Arteta speaks on the team’s defeat against Aston Villa, 2–1, in their match on Saturday.
It can be recalled that Aston Villa scored a goal in the first half, but Arsenal scored back in the second half. After equalizing, Aston Villa scored another goal.
“In the first half we had moments, obviously had the best chance after a foul on Riccy [Calafiori] that Watkins goes through,” Arteta said.
“In the second half we started really well. Scored a goal and we were really dominant.”
Former Liverpool player, Jamie Carragher, speaks on Arsenal’s next match and claims that their game against Aston Villa will be challenging and described it as a test for the team to see how well they perform.
“Arsenal have looked the best team in the league by a long way so far this season, but Man City are still only five points behind.
There’s a long way to go and Arsenal will need to keep their heads! It could be tested tomorrow against Aston Villa!!”
