Kylian Mbappe scored one of the sloppy goals of his career during Tuesday evening's 3-2 victory in Manchester City when he returned Real Madrid to the game.
Madrid was 1-0 in the back of the first stage of their UEFA Champions League play-off when Federico Valverde beat the hour sign in an inviting cross to Mbappe.
The eyes of the former Saint-Germain star of the Paris Saint-Germain enlightened when he launched his body in the air and tried to break a flying volley in the nearby post of Ederson.
Plan a failed while Mbappe has made the ball incorrectly wrong. However, it worked pretty well for the 26-year-old when the ball hit his shin before he walked into the distant pole, stranded with Edererson.
Alan Shearer commented on the game for Prime Video and the goal left the ex-England striker stunned.
When watching for the first time, Shearer said: 'He doesn't get the connection he is looking for because I thought he should have tried to lead. But he waited to try to hit the volley. '
After seeing a repeat, Shearer added: 'That is not nearly near the connection he wants. However, he doesn't care, because the ball ends up in the back of the net.
“It touches his tibia. How on earth does that end up in the back of the net? However, you don't care like an attacker. It's what you try to do, it's not how you do it. It ended up there. '
Erling Haaland had previously given City the lead in the 19th minute by scoring against Madrid for the first time in his career.
Haaland then ran back 80 minutes against Los Blancos to restore the city's lead.
However, it was 2-2 only six minutes later when Brahim Diaz came to the score form against his former club.
Madrid then took the victory in Extra Time when Jude Bellingham was stopped from close by after Vinicius Junior Colleague had lobed Brazilian Edererson.
