Real’s win came after two late goals from Marcelo and Cristiano Ronaldo, who initially cancelled out Adrien Rabiot’s opener for PSG.

Ronaldo made more CL history, scoring a brace as Los Blancos left it late to overcome their visitors from France.

The 33-year-old became the first player to score 100goals for a club in CL history, after scoring his 100th and 101st goals for Real in the competition.

PSG started the brightest and deservedly took the lead via Rabiot, before Ronaldo equalised from the spot for Real, after Toni Kroos was fouled in the box by youngster, Giovani Lo Celso.

After the break, PSG continued to be the better side, but Real showed why they are back-to-back winners when they scored two goals with seven minutes left to play to head into the second leg in Paris with a commanding lead.
