Kylian Mbappé haunts Manchester City at the Etihad yet again 👻

Manchester City don’t have to face Kylian Mbappé very often but they might be just starting to be sick of the sight of him.

The PSG striker has given his side the lead after 50 minutes at the Etihad tonight with a clinical finish after Lionel Messi’s pass had been deflected into his path at the back post.

It was very much against the run of play with Pep Guardiola’s side dominating the first half but give Mbappé a chance and you’re likely to be punished.

But City and Guardiola have been here before with the Frenchman … we all remember the Monaco clash in the Champions League in 2017 don’t we?
