He may get in trouble if he wants to get a drink in some countries, but 18-year-old Kylian Mbappe is already making a name for himself in European football.
The rising star became one of the talking points of the evening that saw Pep Guardiola's side lose against the current Ligue 1 leaders, especially because he was able to re-write a UEFA Champions League record to his name.
"Mbappe (18 years old) is the youngest player in UCL history to score in both legs of a KO game in tournament's history"
