Barcelona Pulls Off Improbable Comeback Against PSG

Mar 8, 2017 11:28 PM

Barcelona achieved an improbable comeback from 4-0 down after their first leg in the Champions League Round of 16 at Paris Saint-Germain.

Luis Suarez scored in the third minute and then an own goal in the 41st minute and a Lionel Messi penalty in the 50th minute gave Barcelona life. But an Edinson Cavani goal in the 62nd minute gave PSG an all-important road goal, which meant Barcelona would have to score three goals.

It looked like PSG was going to escape the spirited Barcelona comeback but Neymar converted a free kick in the 88th minute and then converted a penalty just two minutes later.

Neymar found Sergi Roberto for Barcelona sixth goal of the match to push them into the quarterfinals for yet another season with a 6-5 win on aggregate.
