PSG have just recorded one of the most famous results in the club's history, following a 4-0 drubbing against football giants Barcelona.
From the outset, Paris Saint-Germain dictated the pace of this game and their attacking approach was rewarded inside the opening 20 minutes, when Angel Di Maria curled a free-kick into the roof of the Barcelona net.
It was 2-0 before the intermission after Julian Draxler crashed a low shot into the net and by that stage, Barcelona were visibly shaken with no love coming their way on Valentine's Day.
PSG continued the assault after the restart, with a second goal from Di Maria and a powerful strike from Edinson Cavani completing a famous performance for the French side.
Salvaging a result in the second leg of this last-16 fixture looks to be an insurmountable task for Barcelona and here is how Twitter assessed the astonishing result.
PSG look pretty phenomenal tonight. Fantastic young team there.

PSG got rid of Zlatan Ibrahimovic so that they can win the Champions League just like Barcelona and Inter Milan did.
