A leading member of the midfield ranks at Manchester City managed to snag Kylian Mbappé’s Real Madrid shirt on Tuesday night.
Real and Man City of course played their part in another memorable encounter on the continent yesterday evening.
In the first leg of the Champions League playoff tie between the clubs, the former made the trip to The Etihad, with sights on an advantage to take back to Spain’s capital.
And, when all was said and done, this is precisely what Los Blancos managed.
Owing to a trademark last-gasp comeback, capped off by Jude Bellingham deep into injury time, Real Madrid emerged on the right side of a 3-2 result.
The aforementioned Kylian Mbappé was also on target on the night, drawing the visitors level during the 2nd-half.
And managing to get his hands on the Frenchman’s match-worn jersey on the back of the full-time whistle in Manchester was Bernardo Silva.
Silva and Mbappé were teammates at AS Monaco, with the former having been spotted departing The Etihad on Tuesday with Mbappé’s shirt in hand:
