Kylian Mbappé was named MVP of the match between Real Madrid and Manchester City in the second leg of the Champions League playoff. The French forward produced a stunning display at the Santiago Bernabéu with a hat-trick to guide the team into the last 16: “It was a perfect night for the team and we wanted to win to reach the last 16. When you play against Manchester City it's always a tough game. We're strong at home, we played collectively at our best and we gave joy to all the Madridistas.”

“It was a great day for us and for the team. We have to keep this up if we want to win the things we want to win.”

Winning mentality
“I didn't want to come here to perform badly. I want to play well, to mark an era and write history at Real Madrid. The adaptation period is over and I have to play with personality. I have no limits, but the most important thing is to win trophies. I've scored goals in my career, but I haven't won many trophies. It is in my blood to score a lot of goals and win many trophies.”
 
Opponents in the last-16
“Atlético and Bayer Leverkusen are two top teams and very difficult opponents. For me, it's better for us to play Atletico because then we don't have to travel. Both will be difficult, but Atlético would be tough without travelling.”
