Barcelona achieved an important victory in a thrilling match in the UEFA Champions League against Paris Saint-Germain on Wednesday evening, putting them in a strong position for the semi-finals. At the Parc des Princes in Paris, Barcelona won 3-2, placing them in an excellent position ahead of the return leg in Barcelona in less than a week.
Barcelona took the lead in the first half with a goal from their Brazilian star, Raphinha, before Paris Saint-Germain responded with two quick goals in the second half from Frenchman Ousmane Dembélé and Portuguese Vitinha. With Paris Saint-Germain controlling the game, Barcelona rallied to score two more goals, first again from Raphinha and then a third with a header from Danish defender Andreas Christensen.
With this relatively comfortable result, Barcelona will only need a draw at home to reach the semi-finals of the tournament for the first time in five years.
