Real Madrid kicked off their Champions League campaign in style, defeating Olympique de Marseille 2-1 on Tuesday night. The victory was secured through two penalties converted by Kylian Mbappé, showcasing his prowess on the field.
Facing off against his old rival once again, Mbappé made it clear he enjoys scoring against Marseille—his favorite target during his time at Paris Saint-Germain. He has now netted 12 goals against the club since his debut.
The French star didn’t hold back on the banter either, sharing a celebratory photo on Instagram with the caption “Old Memories.” This was a playful nod to his many spectacular performances against OM, whether with Monaco or, more famously, with PSG.
With this win, Real Madrid sends a strong message in the Champions League, while Mbappé continues to relish the spotlight against a familiar foe, further cementing his legacy in these high-stakes matches.
