Kylian Mbappé bagged a double in the first hour of PSG’s visit to Real Socieded. The French striker was already coMMAnding, if not all, a significant portion of the attention at Anoeta this Tuesday, but his goals in the 16th and 56th minutes made it another night all about Mbappé. Real Sociedad had been hoping to overturn a 2-0 deficit from the first leg, but Mbappé had other ideas. The Game finished 2-0 and 4-0 on aggregate for the side from Paris.

The striker of course is expected to be seen far more in Spanish football following this summer, with Real Madrid understood to be ready to bring the striker to the Spanish capital.

When does Mbappé score in the Champions League?

The French star actually has favourite moments to score goals, and some teams that he’s scored most against in the competition. UEFA, European football’s governing body, in a study published a few weeks ago, conducted a statistical analysis that divided Kylian’s goals so far in the Champions League by the minutes in which he had scored.

Whether Sociedad took note of this curious fact or not, they were mainly aiming to have their best defensive heads on every time the Bondy-born star has the ball, although that proved not to be enough.
