Kylian Mbappe scored twice as Paris Saint-Germain defeated holders Bayern Munich 3-2 in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final on Wednesday, in a repeat of last year’s final.
Mbappe and Marquinhos gave PSG a two-goal lead in snowy conditions at the Allianz Arena but Bayern drew level with headers from Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting and Thomas Mueller.
A second goal of the game from Mbappe on 68 minutes put PSG back on top heading into next Tuesday’s return leg at the Parc des Princes.
