Mbappe inspires Real to victory in UCL opener
MADRID, SPAIN - SEPTEMBER 17: Kylian Mbappe of Real Madrid celebrates scoring his teams first goal during the UEFA Champions League 2024/25 League Phase MD1 match between Real Madrid CF and VfB Stuttgart at Estadio Santiago Bernabeu on September 17, 2024 in Madrid, Spain. Holders Real Madrid thumped Stuttgart 3-1 in the opener of the new UEFA Champions League format on Tuesday evening.
Los Blancos regained control though in the closing seven minutes when Antonio Rudiger jumped high to meet a Luka Modric corner and nodded in the far post. Liverpool pulled level in the middle of the first half after defender Ibrahima Konate towered unchallenged in the area to head in a Trent Alexander-Arnold free-kick.
Kane broke the deadlock earlier on with a spot-kick following a foul in the area - leaving Raphael Guerreiro to make it two through a half-volley before Michael Olise’s header ensured a third.
