Kylian Mbappe netted a hat-trick to help Real Madrid to a 3-1 win against Manchester City in the UEFA Champions League second leg play-off on Wednesday night.
Madrid went through 6-3 on aggregate after winning the first leg 3-2 last week Tuesday.

The 2018 FIFA World Cup winner opened the scoring just four minutes into the game as he ran on to a long pass from Raul Asensio and lobbed Ederson.
On 33 minutes he got the second goal after collecting a pass from Rodrygo he beat Josko Gvardiol inside the box before firing into the net.
He then completed his hat-trick on 61 minutes as he received a pass from Federico Valverde, did a step over to beat his marker and hit a low left foot curler into the far corner.
City got a consolation goal thanks to Nico Gonzalez in the 92nd minute.
In France Paris Saint-Germain were the highest scorers of the night as they hammered fellow Ligue 1 side Brest 7-0 to advance into the round of 16 10-0 on aggregate.
In Germany, Borussia Dortmund went through after playing 0-0 with Sporting Lisbon.
The Bundesliga side booked their place into the next round with a 3-0 aggregate scoreline.
