Mbappe scores as PSG beat Real Sociedad in UCL last-16
Kylian Mbappe marked his return from injury with a goal as Paris St-Germain took control of their Champions League last-16 tie against Real Sociedad.
The French champions have an underwhelming Champions League record and were enduring a frustrating night until Mbappe pounced.
Having missed his side’s previous match with an ankle problem, Kylian scored at the back post after a corner.
