PSG played out 1-1 draw with Barcelona in Paris, but
qualified on 5-2 aggregate.
The French side had won the first leg at the Nou Camp 4-1
two weeks ago, giving Barcelona a mountain to climb to qualify.
But a poor performance from Barcelona meant that they could
not overcome the huge deficit.
Kylian Mbappe gave PSG the lead from the penalty spot.
He won the battle of wills and sent an unstoppable penalty
past Marc-Andre ter Stegen into the top left corner on 31 minutes of play.
A great goal from Lionel Messi restored parity on 37
minutes.
The Argentine collected a pass and without hesitation fired
an unstoppable shot into the top left corner.
On 42 minutes, Sergio Busquets latched on to a precise
defence-splitting pass and fired a nice strike from a promising distance
towards the bottom right corner. Keylor Navas has a clear sight of it and made
a comfortable save.
Barcelona got the opportunity to make it 2-1 as the referee
awarded a penalty on first half added time.
Messi wasted the penalty as Keylor Navas made a brilliant
save and deflected the ball away from the bottom left corner and onto the post.
