Tensions between Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid over the past year have revolved around Killian Ambape, who refuses to sign a new contract in France and is keen to move to the Spanish league leader he covets.

Tonight (Tuesday) the great striker promised that he will also be the story in the rematch at the Santiago Bernabeu, after giving PSG a dramatic 0: 1 in the 94th minute in the last eight of the Champions League.

The numbers

* Leo Messi recorded an eighth game in which he did not score or cook against Real Madrid.

* Messi also equaled Thierry Henry as the king of penalty kicks in the Champions League, when it was his fifth time.

* Killian Ambape has scored 13 goals in his last 13 Champions League games.

* Ambape has been involved in at least one goal in all of his last seven Champions League games (five goals and four assists) thus equaling the record of a French player since the data measurement began.

* Real Madrid kicked the goal only three times during the game - its lowest in the Champions League since 2003/04.

PSG had 21 threats and that is the biggest gap in Real's games in the factory.

Unflattering record.

The reactions

At the end, Ambape referred to reports of his possible move to Real Madrid in the summer and clarified again: "You ask too many questions, I'm a PSG player. I promised I would give it my all and I had to prove it in deeds. I showed here once and I will have to do it a second time "At the Bernabeu. I wanted to concentrate only on football and helping the team. Everyone knows a little about me and talks about nothing."

On the win he said: "I'm happy, it was our good game. We got an advantage towards the return and that's important. Neymar gave me a good ball, I got into the box quickly and this is a striker's place. I knew what I wanted to do and kicked between the goalkeeper's legs. A team like Real has never "I will not give up. In return they will play differently and we will have to prepare for that by March 9."

Danilo Pereira Pargan: "Ambape is not a player like everyone else, for me he is the best of them all. We have great players here, like Messi and Hakimi who are very offensive and I have to cover them occasionally. It was a great game for a great team and always good to get a win at home." .

Saving the pendulum was not enough.

On the other hand, goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois was disappointed that his penalty save was not enough: "Messi has already missed once in front of me, but he kicked to the crossbar. On the other hand, he also did not score too much in front of me. They have a lot of great players and should be ready at any moment. Excellent game and I wanted it to be enough for a draw, but we suffered a silly goal after losing a ball and a situation of three against one. Killian was in front of two players and managed to kick me under the body. We did not want to play so slowly, but PSG pressed very high "Finding free space. At home we will have to be much better."

Coach Carlo Ancelotti admitted: "Ambape is very strong, he won the game. Are the best players coming to Madrid at the end? I do not know, I do not want to talk about it. We had problems with the ball today, we did not get enough situations up front. "We were actually fine. Now we will return home, play in a different way and I believe we can do it."
