Lionel Messi, Neymar , Luis Suarez and the rest of Barcelona were left shell-shocked following a resounding 4-0 demolition in the hands of Paris Saint-Germain in a UEFA Champions League round of 16 first leg tie in Paris.
PSG went into the contest on the back of three successive losses to Messi and co, but goals from Angel Di Maria via an 18th minute free-kick and Julian Draxler in the 40th minute put them in the driving seat at half time.
Celebrating his 29th birthday, Di Maria scored his second of the night in stunning fashion from the edge of the box after 55 minutes. Another birthday boy, Edinson Cavani then completed the Valentine’s Day massacre with the fourth after 72 minutes, to all but put the Parisians into the last eight.
French defender Samuel Umtiti almost got a goal back for Barcelona, only to see his close range header come off the post.
Barcelona had also missed a chance to equalise with the score still just 1-0, when Andre Gomes was denied by Kevin Trapp when put one-on-one with the PSG keeper.
