The Italian midfielder and European champion on the guest side, Marco Verratti, blamed the referee for the defeat: “He’s the only referee in the world who does something like that. We got ten yellow cards. The referee also has to be responsible for his actions take over.” In fact, PSG had only received six warnings.
Randal Kolo Muani (4th), Quentin Merlin (16th) and Ludovic Blas (45th + 6 / hand penalty) shocked the capitals, where national player Thilo Kehrer was called up as right defender. PSG, who had beaten Madrilenians 1-0 in the round of 16 first leg in the premier class on Tuesday, missed numerous top-class chances in a game with open sights.
Neymar (47′) shortened the lead shortly after the break, but the Brazilian miserably missed the chance to make it 2-3 with a poorly taken penalty (59′). PSG then increased the pressure, including ex-world champion Julian Draxler, who brought in more momentum.
