PSG Crushes Barça 4-0 in Stunning Champions League Victory
Humiliating Defeat for Catalan Giants
PSG Dominates from Start to Finish
In a match that will be remembered for years to come, Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) delivered a resounding 4-0 victory over FC Barcelona in the first leg of their Champions League Round of 16 tie on Tuesday.
The visitors from the French capital took control of the game from the outset, pressing Barcelona high up the pitch and preventing them from finding any rhythm. PSG's relentless pressure soon paid off when Kylian Mbappé broke through the defense in the 32nd minute and fired home the opening goal.
Barcelona's woes continued in the second half as PSG continued to dominate possession and create chances. Angel di Maria doubled the French side's lead in the 71st minute with a stunning free-kick, before Moise Kean added a third just four minutes later with a powerful header.
The humiliation was complete in the 85th minute when Mbappé scored his second of the night, capping off a miserable evening for Barcelona and leaving them with a mountain to climb in the second leg.
The result represents a major setback for Barcelona, who were hoping to build on their impressive recent form in La Liga. For PSG, it is a statement of intent and a sign that they are once again a force to be reckoned with in Europe.
