In the match for the exit to the quarter-finals of the Champions League, Madrid's "Real" defeated "Manchester City" with a score of 3-1 and an overall score of 6-3. Mbappe became the main hero of the encounter, completing a hat-trick just before the third minute.

The dominance of the Madrileños continued, and by the middle of the first half, they already had a two-goal lead.

After the break, "Manchester City" could not change the course of the match, while "Real" continued to control the game and increase their advantage. In the 60th minute, Mbappe, once again, hit the fans' hearts with a precise strike, solidifying the final score of the match.
