PSG are jubilant. Barcelona looked completely shocked, with some players crying. PSG were doing well tonight, but Barça were the ones responsible for his own downfall.
Ronald Araujo was sent off after less than 30 minutes for a sarcastic attack on Bradley Barcola, and Joao Cancelo conceded a goal by recklessly and needlessly throwing Ousmane Dembele away.
decisive penalty. Mess que en shambles. But PSG were great. Kylian Mbappe, of course, but also the aforementioned Barcola, Marquinhos and Achraf Hakimi.
Oh, and Dembele, playing to a soundtrack of angry whistles, scored the goal that changed the direction of this draw. PSG will face Borussia Dortmund in the semi-finals, who defeated Atletico Madrid tonight 4-2, 5-4 on aggregate.
FULL TIME: Barcelona 1-4 PSG (agg 4-6)
PSG gain comeback-infused revenge for 2017!
90 min +7: … and now Fermin is booked for dissent as well. Probably just as well the whistle’s about to blow.
90 min +6: Raphinha is booked for dissent. He then nearly picks up a second yellow for yakking on.
90 min +5: Plenty of tears in the stands. And no wonder: Barcelona had a two-goal cushion and let everything slip through their fingers in spectacular fashion. PSG have been marvellous, though, even if their comeback was sparked by Ronald Araújo’s unwise challenge.
90 min +3: Mbappe attempts the hat-trick goal with a long-distance rake. Ter Stegen does exceptionally well to parry a shot arrowing towards the top right.
90 min +2: The seats at the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys are flipping up at pace. The home fans flooding out.
90 min: The PSG celebrations border on bedlam. There will be seven added minutes. Donnarumma is booked for something or other.
GOAL! Barcelona 1-4 PSG (Mbappe 89); agg 4-6
Raphinha tries to score direct from the corner. Donnarumma is forced to tip over the bar. But from the next corner, PSG steal possession and romp upfield on the counter. Hakimi down the right. He crosses low. Mbappe has a whack at goal. Ter Stegen saves with his knee. Asensio meets the rebound with a fierce drive. Ter Stegen saves at full stretch. Kounde tries to clear, but only cushions the ball into the path of Mbappe, who isn’t missing a second chance. He slots into the bottom right, and this tie is over!
88 min: Lewandowski snaffles possession in the centre circle and bowls down the middle of the park at speed. He takes a whack from the edge of the box. Marquinhos blocks with his behind, and celebrates as though he’s just scored. It’ll be a corner, though, which will be taken after Dembele is replaced by Kolo Muani.
86 min: Barcelona are enjoying their best spell of the match since scoring early in the first half. A bit of possession in the Parisian half. The visitors suddenly looking a little bit shaky. But Martinez then floats a cross from the left out of play for a goal kick. Pressure off. PSG don’t rush the restart.
85 min: Raphinha takes, swinging it in from the right. Donnarumma races off his line to punch, and clean misses the ball. He clatters into Lewandowski, but when the whistle goes, it’s not for a penalty, it’s for a clear offside on the striker. The PSG keeper gets away with a big one there.
GOAL! Barcelona 1-3 PSG (Mbappe 61 pen); agg 4-5
Mbappe, cool as you like, lashes an unstoppable penalty into the top-left corner. Ter Stegen went the correct way, but he was never getting there, as the ball lashes into the inside side netting. What a spot kick! What a tie this is!
45 min: Barcola makes off down the left and turns Kounde inside and out like an old sock, before lashing a shot-cum-cross through the six-yard box and out for a goal kick. Barca could do with hearing the half-time whistle.
44 min: Raphinha wins a free kick by running slap-bang into Zaire-Emery. Brief respite for the hosts, who take their time to take it.
42 min: Barcelona are rocking now. PSG pushing them back, the scent of blood in the nostrils. Vitinha lashes a shot over the bar from the edge of the D.
GOAL! Barcelona 1-1 PSG (Dembele 40); agg 4-3
Barcola strides down the left and fires a low cross through the six-yard box. The ball evades Mbappe in the middle, but Dembele, coming in from the right, lashes an unstoppable shot into the top-right corner of the net from ten yards! Game on!
36 min: Lewandowski and Hakimi come together. The former falls over, clutching his ear. It was a 50-50 challenge, but the referee gives it to Barcelona, and the home fans demand red-coloured retribution. That’s a stretch; it’s a free kick and nothing more. Lewandowski not happy. Hakimi isn’t that content with the decision either. Referee István Kovács has a job on now, after making that big (albeit correct) decision. Barcelona and their fans are going to howl for everything.
38 min: Dembele whistles down the right. It’s an exciting run, but João Cancelo sticks out a leg to time a tackle to perfection. More for the home crowd to enjoy.
