1st Leg: PSG 4-0 FC Barcelona

2nd Leg: FC Barcelona 6-1 PSG

No team had overturned a four-goal deficit going into the second-leg in Champions League history and the odds were heavily stacked against the Catalans. The heavy spending and ambitious PSG thoroughly routed Barcelona in the first leg at Parc des Princes with Angel di Maria scoring twice for the Unai Emery led side.

In one of the greatest Champions League nights, what should have been a day to remember for PSG ended up as their biggest nightmare as the Catalans inspired by the roars of a full-house at Camp Nou thumped the visitors 6-1.

Two goals in added time ensured that Barcelona made amends for their first-leg disappointment and scripted a fairytale result.

FC Barcelona advanced to the quarterfinals 6-5 on aggregate
