The champions league's greatest escape – opta's key stats from barca's revival

Barcelona defied the odds to pull off the greatest escape in Champions League history as they beat Paris Saint-Germain 6-1 at Camp Nou to become the first side to overturn a 4-0 first-leg

deficit in Europe's top-tier competition. Barca's hopes appeared to be dashed when Edinson Cavani scored for PSG in the 62nd minute to make it 3-1 on the night and ensure the hosts

needed to score another three to progress. But, as Luis Enrique suggested was possible on Tuesday, Barca incredibly hit that target and they did so in the most dramatic of circumstances,

scoring three times after the 88th minute – Neymar getting two before Sergi Roberto sealed progression five minutes into stoppage time. You may like Highlighting the sheer significance of
