Barcelona beat Paris Saint-Germain 2:3 in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals at the Parc de France. Rafinha, Federer Bischel LaRafinia and Andreas Christensen scored for Barcelona.
Xavi came on as a substitute and was involved in a 1:3 win over PSG in the same quarter-final on April 15, 2015. Luis Enrique is the coach of PSG and Xavi was the Barcelona coach nine years ago. The Catalans have an advantage for the home rematch next Tuesday. PSG had their 27-match unbeaten streak halted in all competitions and will need a comeback of their own next week to leave Kylian Mbappe the chance to leave the club with the title he is missing. The captain became PSG's all-time top scorer with his 436th game (beating Jean-Marc Filorge's previous record of 435 after 35 years) but will not want to remember this game, when Andreas Christensen's decisive goal was scored after a miss his in the horn.
