Umtiti gets down the left and fires in a low cross that Kimpembe miscues nervously. There's no one in the box for Barca to take advantage and PSG are able to clear their heads and hack it to safety.

Barca enjoying their best spell of the match. Lots of patient possession.
29'
Cracking stat.
28'
CLOSE! Neymar shimmies into space and plays a lovely ball in behind the left back for Gomes who surges into the right of the area before flashing a low shot past the advancing Trapp into the side netting.
27'
Barca have their own free kick. It's a bit further out, approximately 30 yards... Messi takes it but cracks it straight into the wall.
26'
A fitting celebration for this evening too...
25'
Timely from the ex Real Madrid man.

Barca enjoying a good spell of possession. They've not been at it so far tonight. Will that goal spark them into life?

The perfect gift!
20'
You have to say it's no more than PSG deserve. They've been asking all of the questions so far.

The strike wasn't right in the corner, but it had real pace and left ter Stegen with too much to do. The Barca keeper was pretty much rooted to the spot.
18'
GOAL! Di Maria steps up and fires a smart 22 yard free kick over the wall and into the net.

Umtiti catches Draxler 22 yards out. Free kick in a very dangerous position for the hosts...
16'
Neymar goes down and looks like he wants some treatment... Then he decides to take his time and lace his boots! Casual as you like. Seems like he'll be okay.
15'
Quite a few empty seats in the visiting end.

STAT: PSG's home record against Spanish sides is W6 D5 L2. They have failed to win their previous five (home and away).

Di Maria causing mayhem with Verratti enjoying himself as he picks hole after hole in Barca's defence.

Barca looking very fragile at the back. PSG growing in belief with each attack.
