Barcelona secured a 3-2 comeback win away against Paris Saint-Germain in the first leg of their Champions League quarterfinal tie on Wednesday, serving a blow to the Parisians’ hopes of winning their first title. The Spanish side, looking to flex its muscles in Europe once again, had taken the lead through Raphinha but found itself 2-1 down after the break after two quick goals from the host.
However, despite going behind, PSG had been in the driver’s seat heading into the last 30 minutes after two goals in the space of three minutes. Winger Ousmane Dembélé equalized with a vicious strike in the 48th minute, before Vitinha kept his cool to hand his side the lead in the 51st minute.
