Delivery ! We had to wait until the very end of regulation time for the Parisians to finally be able to breathe. Heckled in the final minutes of the Champions League quarter-final second leg against FC Barcelona, Luis Enrique’s men ended up scoring for the fourth time this Tuesday evening, thanks to Kylian Mbappé, who had been widely criticized after a transparent performance during the first leg (2-3).
On a counter-attack, the captain of the Blues launched at full speed into the penalty area first came up against Ter Stegen, just like his teammate Asensio just after him, author of a very powerful recovery but again stopped by the Barcelona goalkeeper. The ball finally returned to the feet of Kylian Mbappé, who managed to take it from the left to score the second goal of his evening and allowed the capital club to lead 4 goals to 1.
Earlier in the match (61st), he had already allowed the Parisians to take the advantage, after converting a penalty obtained by his teammate Ousmane Dembélé. With this double, it clearly allows Paris Saint-Germain to reach the semi-final of the competition, a first since 2021. It will be against Dortmund.
