Barcelona completes a stunning and historic comeback against PSG while Borussia Dortmund thrashes Benfica

Hi Dassyb's Blog readers and football fans. Yesterday night saw an historic and magical comeback from Fc Barcelona where they were 5-3 down on aggregate in the 88th minute, but scored three goals in the final seven minutes in one of the greatest European ties of all time. A goal in the fifth-minute of injury time from Sergi Roberto gave Barcelona a miracle 6-1 win over Paris Saint Germain to reach the Champions League quarter-finals on Wednesday in breathtaking style.Barca scored three times in the last few minutes to go through 6-5 on aggregate having lost 4-0 in Paris in the first leg.


Barcelona had led 2-0 at the break courtesy of Luis Suarez's header after just three minutes and Layvin Kurzawa's own goal.And they added another shortly after half-time when Neymar fell over Thomas Meunier in the box and Lionel Messi converted the penalty.

Neymar curled a sumptuous free-kick into the top corner before Suarez won a penalty and gave it to the Brazilian to convert - which he did comfortably, leaving Barca with one goal to find in injury time.And Neymar, who put in one of his finest ever performances, turned provider for substitute Roberto who poked home his first goal of the season as the Nou Camp exploded.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang scored a hat-trick as Borussia Dortmund thrashed Benfica to ease into the Champions League quarter-finals.
The hosts trailed 1-0 on aggregate from the first leg but Aubameyang levelled the last-16 tie after just four minutes with a header at the back post. Dortmund took control after Christian Pulisic scored on 59 minutes.The 18-year-old winger brilliantly chipped onrushing goalkeeper Ederson after being slid in by Lukasz Piszczek.
Aubameyang, who missed a penalty in the first leg in Lisbon, then swept in Marcel Schmelzer's low cross two minutes later before an unmarked Marc Bartra hit the post from a corner.






The Gabon striker completed his treble with five minutes remaining as he turned in Erik Durm's sublime pass.
Dortmund have now lost only one of their last 12 European home matches under coach Thomas Tuchel as they reached the Champions League quarter-finals for the first time since 2014.
What a great night of champions league we witnessed. And this will be a night to talk about and remember in years to come. Congratulations to Barcelona and Dortmund.

Champions league results... PSG defeats chelsea

Hi dassyb blog readers and sport fans, the champions league is back and last night two matches were played to kickstart the round of 16 round. Paris st Germain defeated Chelsea at home by 2 goals to one while Benfica also recorded a 1 nil home win over Zenith st Petersburg.


Jonas headed in a 91st-minute winner as the home side edged a tense tussle to eke out a narrow first-leg lead while PSG went ahead through Zlatan Ibrahimovic's deflected free-kick.But John Mikel Obi scored a precious away goal, capitalising on some terrible defending to sweep home a deserved leveller from six yards. Chelsea's stoic defending had them on course for a draw, before Cavani steered home Angel di Maria's pass. The 29-year-old Uruguay striker, who has been used primarily as back-up to Ibrahimovic this season, scored moments after substitute Oscar spurned a chance for the visitors.
