Barcelona in history: 6-1 at PSG

It had never happened in the history of a European football competition for a team to come back from a 4-0 deficit: a feat that goes down in legend, made even more difficult by the fact that they conceded goals at home and were forced to not score 4 (for overtime) or 5, but 6.

Barcelona in history: 6-1 at PSG

What happened at the Camp Nou was simply incredible: Barcelona qualified for the quarter-finals of the Champions League by overcoming the 4-0 lead in the first leg in favor of PSG, who were also able to score a goal with Cavani in the second leg, forcing the Catalans to make six. But Luis Enrique's men did it, at their last gasp: after going up 3-0, the Uruguayan striker's goal seemed to have cut off their legs because at that point they had to score another three, less than in quarter game. The unthinkable happened in the final: the crazy remuntada was completed in the space of a few minutes, up to the 87th minute the score was still 3-1, then three goals arrived, two of which in added time (the first from a penalty for a foul on Suarez).

The last one, the decisive one for qualifying, was scored by Sergi Roberto right at the last second. Before him, in order, Suarez, Kurzawa own goal, Messi on penalty, Neymar and Neymar again on penalty. It had never happened in the history of a European football competition for a team to come back from a 4-0 deficit: a feat that goes down in legend, made even more difficult by the fact that they conceded goals at home and were therefore forced to 4 (for overtime) or 5, but 6.
