Both strikers were the great stars of their teams and made it to the next round.
The first two second legs of the round of 16 were played and we already know the first teams to qualify for the quarterfinals. On the one hand, Paris Saint-Germain faced Real Sociedad on Spanish soil, while in the other match, Bayern Munich faced Lazio. Both matches ended with the favorites winning thanks to the great performances of their respective stars: Kylian Mbappé and Harry Kane.
In Spain, at Real Sociedad’s stadium, Kylian Mbappé showed why he has been the main object of desire for Real Madrid. The French striker unveiled himself with a brace. The first of his goals fell in the 15th minute, while the second he scored until the 56th minute, with which his team took a wide 4-0 lead on aggregate and eventually took the win.
Meanwhile, in Germany, Bayern Munich fans enjoyed a magical night with England striker Harry Kane. The 30-year-old striker, who joined Bayern in the summer transfer window for 95 million euros, scored twice against Lazio. Kane opened the scoring in the 38th minute and finished the scoring in the 66th minute, taking the former Tottenham striker’s tally to 32 goals in 33 appearances for the German side.
Thus, both PSG and Bayern Munich became the first two clubs to qualify for the quarterfinals of the UEFA Champions League. They will now have to wait for the round of 16 to be completed to find out their next opponents in this competition.
