Yesterday, the "Paris Saint-Germain" club, after releasing a guaranteed ticket to the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals, fell into panic at the end of the match against "Barcelona", and this may have led to failure.
After playing 87 minutes at the "Camp Nou" stadium, Unai Emery's team still led with a total score of 5-3, but Neymar's double and Sergi Roberto's goal in the final moments secured the Catalan triumph, which will surely be remembered as the most impressive in history.
Before the return match at home, "Barca" was already written off, having suffered a crushing defeat in France by 4-0. However, at their own field, the Spanish champions expanded their victory to 6-1.
Opta's statistics reveal that starting from the 87th minute and 24 seconds, PSG managed to make only four accurate passes.
Unbelievably, three of these four passes were ball retrievals from the middle of the field after their opponents scored goals.
All this can be seen graphically in the illustration.
4 - Paris Saint-Germain have completed only four passes between Barcelona's fourth goal (Neymar; 87:24) and the final whistle. Panic.
