Barcelona started brightly and took an early lead, but PSG gradually seized control of the contest. Mbappe equalized from the penalty spot, and PSG continued to dominate the game. In the closing stages, Raphinha's red card left Barcelona with ten men, and Mbappe struck a late goal to seal the victory and send PSG through to the semi-finals.
