• French striker scores twice in Champions League opener
• Jude Bellingham seals Dortmund win; Milan draw in Salzburg

Kylian Mbappé struck twice as Paris Saint-Germain launched their latest quest for Champions League glory with victory over Juventus. The France international took just five minutes to put his side in front after running on to Neymar’s audacious through-ball and he doubled his tally with just 22 minutes gone.

Half-time Juventus substitute Weston McKennie reduced the deficit with a 53rd-minute header after Mbappé had squandered a great chance for the hosts, failing to square the ball across to the unmarked Neymar early in the second half.
