PSG to Quarter Finals in UCL! Oh My GOD55

Paris Saint-Germain beat Borussia Dortmund 2-0 in a Champions League last-16 second leg to reach the quarter-finals 3-2 on aggregate. The match was played behind closed doors because of coronavirus fears, with many PSG fans congregating outside the Parc des Princes stadium instead.

Neymar and Juan Bernat scored before half-time to overturn a 2-1 first-leg deficit and send the French champions into the last eight for the first time since 2016. Dortmund finished with 10 men after Emre Can was sent off in the dying minutes for a clash with Neymar.

PSG made it past the last 16 after painful exits at the same stage in the past two years. They let slip a 4-0 advantage in a 6-5 aggregate defeat by Barcelona in 2017 and lost against Manchester United on away goals after beating the English side 2-0 at Old Trafford 12 months ago.

More than 3,000 ultra fans gathered near the Parc des Princes before kick-off after being granted authorisation by the police – demonstrations being considered an exemption to the ban of gatherings of more than 1,000 as French authorities try to contain the coronavirus, which has infected 2,281 people and killed 48.

Neymar put the hosts ahead in the 28th minute as he dived in to head home Di María’s free-kick for his 35th goal in 57 matches, making his presence count after missing the return leg against United through injury last season.

Bernat doubled the lead on the stroke of half-time by flicking Sarabia’s attempt past Bürki. PSG pressed high after the break while Erling Braut Haaland, who scored a double in the first leg, never looked likely to add to his 10 Champions League goals this season.

They lit fireworks and their chants could be overheard in the stadium. “Our only virus is Paris SG,” a banner in the empty arena read.
