Newcastle were minutes away from becoming the first team to keep a clean sheet against PSG in a UCL group stage game since Real Madrid in 2015 and the first team to beat PSG home and away in a single UCL group stage campaign since CSKA Moscow in 2004/05.

Huge Controversy. :open_mouth:

:face_with_symbols_over_mouth: Kylian Mbappé: “It’s frustrating because we dominate from start to finish, they have nothing and we knew it was their game to have nothing.

We have to finish our chances and be involved in this kind of decisive match."

Rodri completed 100/111 passes in the opposition half against RB Leipzig, becoming the first player with 100+ accurate passes in the opposition half in a single #UCL match since 29 September 2021 (Mateo Kovačić, 105).

40 - Erling Haaland scored his 40th UEFA Champions League goal this evening in just his 35th appearance in the competition. He’s netted 12 goals against RB Leipzig in all competitions, at least five more than against any other opponent in his top-flight club career. Nemesis.

Feyenoord scored two own goals (Geertruida, Giménez) against Atlético tonight, becoming the first side with multiple own goals in a #UCL match in more than four years. :grimacing:

Last team to do it before them? Chelsea, against Ajax on 5 November 2019 (Abraham, Kepa).
