Kylian Mbappé's mad stats
The Paris Saint-Germain forward's five-star display against Bayern Munich has brought up some impressive numbers.
Season upon season Kylian Mbappé just keeps racking up spectacular numbers, and his brace in the snow in Bavaria helped the FIFA World Cup winner reach new milestones.
The Parisian number 7 took just 148 secondes to beat Manuel Neuer following Neymar Jr's superb ball. It's Paris' fastest Champions League goal since Dani Alves struck after just 84 seconds - against Bayern in the group phase - on 27 September 2017.
Marquinhos added the second goal before the break, and Mbappé then grabbed the third after the hour mark to seal the Rouge-et-Bleu's win.
AND TWO MORE...
Mbappé's brace means he's now got seven knockout stage goals for Paris Saint-Germain, one more than Zlatan Ibrahimovic. He's also the club's second-top scorer in the Champions League, behind only Edinson Cavani (30).
With eight goals in his last four appearances in the competition – 2 goals against Istanbul Basaksehir, 3 goals in the first leg against Barcelona and 1 in the second, 2 against Bayern Munich – Mbappé has now been involved in 41 goals in 38 competitive matches this season.
Mbappé has netted 10 braces in all competitions this season...if you exclude his hat-trick at the Camp Nou. That game, which saw him become the first player to score a knockout round hat-trick against the Catalans, saw Mbappé become the youngest player to score 25 Champions League goals aged 22 years and 80 days.

FLYING FRENCHMAN
The club's third-top all-time goalscorer (122 goals), Mbappé has made his mark on French football history. He's got eight goals in the competition this season, equalling the record for a Frenchman also held by David Trezeguet (2001-2002, Juventus) and Wissam Ben Yedder (2017-2018, Sevilla)...
With 27 career goals in the Champions League, he has passed Antoine Griezmann (26) to move into the all-time top five French goalscorers in the competition.
