Fans can’t get over Kylian Mbappe’s crazy turn of pace against Man Utd

‘Should have starred in Need For Speed’: Fans can’t get over Kylian Mbappe’s incredible turn of pace to score second PSG goal at Old Trafford

Kylian Mbappe wowed fans — and Manchester United’s defenders — with his incredible turn of pace to score for PSG at Old Trafford on Tuesday night.

The 20-year-old speedster gave centre backs Eric Bailly and Victor Lindelof a significant head start but still raced past them both to get on the end of Angel di Maria’s low cross in the 60th minute.

Mbappe’s goal — his 22nd of the season for his club — helped PSG record a 2-0 win over United in the first leg of their Champions League last 16 tie.

While there were plenty of other talking points in the match — including Paul Pogba’s late red card and Di Maria’s angry reaction to being booed by his former fans — many viewers took to Twitter to express their awe at Mbappe’s rapid run.

One joked that Mbappe should have been in the Need For Speed film franchise, while another used a meme to compare him to the Road Runner.

Neymar will also miss the second leg on March 6, but Cavani — who has a hip issue — has not yet been ruled out of the Paris clash.
