regex for url rewrite but keep the source url in the address bar

I need to rewrite a url.

Source: domain/event-detail/sport/event/?event=171990

Target: domain/event-detail/?event=171990

but the Source URL should be displayed in the address bar.

I thought of something like: 

if url contains "event-details" and /*/*/?event=XX (/event-details/*/*) -> /event-detail/?event=XX

And then a rewrite rule to display the source url. How to do it?

This should do the trick:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/event-detail/.+/.+/$
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^event=\d+$
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.example.com/event-detail/? [R=301,L]

Following your logic, capture URIs containing event-detail/.+/.+/ and having a query parameter like event=\d+
