FC Barcelona hosted Paris Saint-Germain at the Nou Camp in the last round of fixtures in a Group F clash.
Both the teams had qualified for the next stage, but the winner of this match would top the group and possibly avoid a tough draw in the Round of 16. Barcelona needed a win, while PSG could top the group even with a draw.
Barcelona finished top of the group in style as they came from behind to win 3-1 against PSG
The stage was set for Zlatan Ibrahimovic as he made a return to his ex-club with the French side and he did not take long to show the Camp Nou faithful what they are missing out on. On the 15th minute, the striker hit a powerful shot to give the club from France the lead.
Lionel Messi would not be left behind however, as he equalized for the Catalans and Neymar hit a beautifully-placed shot to give Barcelona the lead.
Here are the highlights from the match:

Barcelona 1-1 Paris Saint-Germain: Lionel Messi (19’)
A long ball over the PSG defence found Luis Suarez who had made a run to the byline. His first time intelligent cross was precisely placed between the goalkeeper and the defenders.
As the ball was bobbling across the goal, Lionel Messi used his tremendous speed and anticipation to run to the far post and side-footed the ball with his right foot past the scrambling Salvatore Sirigu.
Barcelona 2-1 Paris Saint-Germain: Neymar (41’)
One for the backpages! Neymar had only one thing on his mind after he was found by Andres Iniesta, who was making his 100th Champions League appearance.
His mazy run found him outside the box with two defenders around him. The Brazilian hit the ball perfectly as he placed the ball into the goal to beat Sirigu from a long way out.
Barcelona 3-1 Paris Saint-Germain: Luis Suarez (77’)
An intricate build-up play at the edge of the box resulted in Luis Suarez extending Barcelona’s lead.
Lionel Messi passed the ball to the Uruguayan, who had to stretch to slide the ball to Xavi who laid off Neymar on the left hand side for a shot.
The Brazilian hit a first-time shot towards the far post, but the keeper held out a hand to keep him out. The ball kindly fell to Suarez who had picked himself up from the ground and made an opportunistic run towards the goal and he did not disappoint as he knocked the ball into the empty goal.
