Barcelona are out of this season’s Champions League but gave themselves and the fans reasons to be proud after a 1-1 draw at the Parc des Princes in the Round of 16 second leg against PSG. Barça played a truly exceptional first half and could have gone into the break with a lead of at least three goals, but a combination of poor finishing, questionable refereeing and a great night for PSG goalkeeper Keylor Navas led to a draw and a graceful European exit for Barça.
FIRST HALF
Barça played one of their best halves of football in recent memory in the first 45 minutes, dominating possession, pressing PSG to near suffocation and controlling the threat of Kylian Mbappé on the counter-attack almost perfectly.
