Paris Saint-Germain advanced to the quarterfinals of the UEFA Champions League after extending their lead in the first leg in San Sebastián against Real Sociedad.
Kylian Mbappé did the job with a brace and his first goal of the night literally broke the net.
It was a sensational shot that the Frenchman cut in from the left with his right foot to increase the advantage of Luis Enrique’s team. Mbappé now has 46 in the competition, approaching Thierry Henry’s 50.
PSG’s qualification to the quarter-finals of the competition means that former Barcelona coach Luis Enrique has never failed to reach the quarter-finals of the Champions League as head coach.
