Speaking of the match, Lionel Messi had opened the scoring just past the half-hour mark from the penalty spot but the lead lasted only five minutes as Kylian Mbappe brought the Paris team on level terms. In the second half, the 22-year-old scored on either side of Moise Keane’s strike to complete his treble and a dominant win.

Barcelona once again find themselves on the back of a poor result in a big game this season and need a perfect display in Paris if they are to have any chance of overturning this deficit. Considering the Spanish team's recent form in away UCL games a comeback looks highly unlikely.
