BARCELONA pulled off the most incredible comeback in Champions League history with three goals in the final seven minutes to send PSG packing on a night of high drama.
By BRUCE ARCHER
The La Liga giants were trailing 4-0 from the first leg in Paris but set about pegging PSG back right from the off.
Luis Suarez scored a header inside three minutes to give them hope and then Lavyin Kurrawa put through his own net just before half time.
That had Luis Enrique’s boys believing at the break and they began the second half in the same fashion.
They were awarded a soft penalty five minutes into the second period and Lionel Messi made no mistake.
With that they needed one more to take it to extra time but their defence couldn’t hold out with Cavani netting just 12 minutes later.
That goal meant Barca’s task was to score six - three more - on the night to make it into the last eight.
