  While Barca conceded a penalty when goalkeeper Szczesny took out Mbappe in a 1v1 in the 5th minute, it was the French forward who coolly converted it for Madrid's breakthrough into the bottom left corner.  Mbappe moments later doubled the lead as he found himself once again in a 1v1 situation that ended up with the ball in the back of the net again.
