After Manchester City led 1-0, Monaco's players seemed particularly unwilling, especially Mbappe.

Facing the backward situation, he was determined to use his speed and technology to get back one point for the team.

In the following time of the game, Mbappe made several personal breakthroughs and launched a fierce attack on Manchester City's defense.

In the 32nd minute, Mbappe received a pass from Fabinho in the midfield, started quickly, and dribbled the ball along the left.

He used his speed to shake off Fernando's defense. Facing Sagna's close pressure, Mbappe made a clever change of direction to get past Sagna and directly into the penalty area.

Facing Manchester City goalkeeper Joe Hart, Mbappe chose a low shot, and the ball went straight to the lower left corner of the goal.

However, Joe Hart reacted quickly and fell to the ground and hugged the ball firmly.

In the 37th minute, Bernardo Silva broke through on the right and passed the ball to Mbappe at the front of the penalty area.

Mbappe turned quickly after receiving the ball and dodged Fernandinho's interception.

When he dribbled into the penalty area, he faced Otamendi one-on-one.

Mbappe used his speed and clever footwork to shake off Otamendi, and then shot a powerful shot, and the ball went straight to the upper right corner of the goal.

Joe Hart jumped high and lifted the ball over the crossbar with his fingertips, defusing a very threatening shot.

In the 42nd minute, Monaco launched another offensive. Bernardo Silva and Lemar made a clever cooperation in the midfield and passed the ball to Mbappe who was advancing.

Mbappe used a wonderful Marseille turn in the penalty area to get rid of Mangala's defense. Facing Joe Hart, he chose a tricky low shot.

Joe Hart performed very well today. He fell to the ground in time and blocked the ball out of the baseline with his feet, once again thwarting Mbappe's offensive attempt.

Facing MbappeWith Mbappe's multiple breakthroughs, Manchester City's defense showed great vigilance and teamwork.

Otamendi, Mangala and Sagna worked closely together in the defense process, constantly blocking Mbappe's passing routes and shooting angles.

Midfielders Fernandinho and Fernando also actively returned to defense, assisting the defenders to make up and intercept.

They tried to slow down Mbappe's speed and disrupt his offensive rhythm through constant pressure and tackling.

Goalkeeper Joe Hart performed particularly well in the game.

Not only did he make several key saves, but he also kept the defense tight and orderly by loudly commanding the back line.

His calmness and decisiveness helped Manchester City maintain its leading advantage.

With the referee's whistle, the first half ended and Manchester City temporarily led Monaco 1-0.

Although Monaco threatened Manchester City's goal many times under the leadership of Mbappe, Joe Hart's heroic performance and the tenacious defense of Manchester City's back line ensured that the team maintained its lead at the end of the half.

In the locker room, Monaco coach Leonardo Jardim looked at his players seriously. Monaco must do something in the second half to get back on track.

"Everyone did a good job, especially Mbappe," Jardim began.

"But we need to be more precise and organized. Manchester City's defense is very strong, and Joe Hart's performance is also very good."

"But this does not mean that we have no chance."

He took out the tactical board, pointed to several key positions and continued: "Bernardo, you need to make more use of the space on the right and pass the ball quickly into the penalty area."

"Falcao, your position should be more flexible, and you should be ready to receive crosses or through balls at any time."

Jardin then emphasized: "Fabinho and Bakayoko in the midfield, you need to increase the pressure on Manchester City's midfield and try to compress their passing space."

"We must win more ball possession in the midfield to create opportunities for the frontcourt."

Finally, he looked at Mbappe: "Kylian, your breakthrough is crucial, but you should also pay attention to the timing of passing and shooting."

"Don't rush for success, and believe in the support of your teammates."
