Paris Saint-Germain have booked their place in the semi-finals of the UEFA Champions League after coming from behind to beat Barcelona 4-1 in the second leg of their quarter-final tie. Kylian Mbappe was the star of the show, scoring twice as PSG overturned a 1-0 deficit from the first leg.
Barcelona took the lead in the first half through Luis Suarez, but PSG equalized just before halftime through Mbappe. The French forward then put PSG ahead in the second half, and Barcelona's task was made even more difficult when Clement Lenglet was sent off for a second yellow card.
Mbappe completed his hat-trick late on, and Moise Kean added a fourth in stoppage time to seal a comprehensive victory for PSG. The French champions will now face Borussia Dortmund in the semi-finals.
