It was Raphinha who eventually broke the deadlock with a clinical finish after a swift counter-attack orchestrated by the youngster Lamine Yamal.

However, PSG responded emphatically in the second half, with Ousmane Dembélé & Vitinha scoring quickfire goals to put the home side in front. Barcelona refused to be disheartened & fought back fearlessly, with Raphinha once again proving to be the hero as he netted his second goal of the night with a sublime volley. The stage was set for a dramatic finale, & it was Andreas Christensen who rose highest to head home İlkay Gündoğan’s corner & secure a memorable victory for Barcelona.

As the teams prepare for the second leg at Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys, the tie hangs in the balance, promising another entertaining encounter between the two European giants. Barcelona will look to build on their momentum & secure a spot in the semi-finals, while PSG will be determined to bounce back & turn the tables on their opponents.
