Kylian Mbappé scored the opening goal as Real Madrid edged past Inter Milan despite defensive lapses, with the French forward becoming the fifth-highest goalscorer in Champions League history.
Real Madrid defeated Inter Milan 2-1 in what was billed as the headline clash of the opening night of the Champions League, according to France 24.
