Barcelona emerge victorious from a terrific goal celebration of a Champions League clash.
PSG goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma had unfortunate involvements in two of Barcelona’s goals, something TV 2’s commentators were also clear to note.
– He is glued to the line. He has been unsure all evening. Of course he should have been there and boxed the ball away, commented Jesper Mathisen when Danish Andreas Christensen scored 3-2 to Barcelona.
Kylian Mbappé and Co. never managed to get back into the game again, and Barcelona thus secured an excellent starting point before the second leg, which will be played on 16 April.
Turned the game around in two minutes
It’s hard to tell what Luis Enrique said to the PSG players in the dressing room at half-time, but the home side looked re-energized as they took to the pitch for the second half.
Only three minutes into the second half, former Barcelona player Ousmane Dembélé brought balance to the account with a beautiful finish.
Three minutes later it was Vitinha’s turn to put the ball in the net, and the hosts had turned the game around.
– That touch and that finish from Vitinha, it cannot be done better, exclaims TV 2’s commentator Øyvind Alsaker.
– The world’s best waiter
The away team from Spain did not let themselves be broken, and ten minutes later the teams were the same distance again.
Pedri chipped the ball over the PSG defense in masterful fashion, and Raphinha could easily slot in his second of the day.
– Pedri takes on the role of the world‘s best waiter again. Look at that hit! It’s absolutely crazy what he’s doing there, exclaimed Alsaker.
A quarter of an hour before the end, Danish Andreas Christensen secured the win for Barcelona when he headed in a corner kick.
TV 2’s commentators were once again very critical of Donnarumma’s goalkeeping.
– He is glued to the line. He has been unsure all evening. Of course he should have been there and boxed the ball away.
Barcelona thus secured an excellent starting point before the second leg, which will be played on 16 April.
