22:29
With Neymar, the first substitute of the game is getting ready for his assignment. Mauricio Pochettino has realized that his side need a fresh impetus up front.
68
22:27
The Madrilenians’ defense made more mistakes than before the break, but survived the guest appearance on the Seine unscathed. A goalless draw would no doubt be a satisfying first-leg result for them after this run.
65
22:25
Verratti needs treatment on the field after being unluckily hit in the left foot by Alaba. After a short break, the Italian seems to be able to continue.
62
22:20
Danilo Pereira (Paris Saint Germain) is shown a yellow card.
Danilo stops a guest counterattack by knocking down Vinícius Júnior in the center circle. The tactical offense resulted in the fifth yellow card of the evening.

22:20
Penalty missed by Lionel Messi, Paris Saint-Germain
Messi fails at Courtois! The Argentinian superstart moves the ball from the point with the left instep to the half-height right corner. Real’s goalkeeper has chosen the right side and saves the ball to the side.
60
22:19
There is penalty kick for Paris! Mbappé passes Carvajal on the left side of the box and is then brought down by the Spaniard, who tripped him. Referee Orsato immediately points to the point.
57
10:15 p.m
Yellow card for Ferland Mendy (Real Madrid)
Mendy climbs on Danilo’s right ankle at increased speed. The offense of the French is punished with a warning. As it is his third of the current CL season, he will miss the second leg in Madrid.
55
22:13
Kroos from a distance! The German unpacks a powerful shot with the right instep from a central 24 meters. The slightly fluttering ball rushes in the middle just above Donnarumma’s case.
54
22:12
Messi circles the ball after Mendes’ cross pass from the left wing from the middle of 19 meters with the left inside instep to the upper left corner. Courtois takes a step to the side and captures the unplaced attempt.
51
22:10
Yellow card for Eder Militao (Real Madrid)
The Portuguese gets into Mbappé’s bones in midfield in a fight for a free ball from behind. The third warning of the evening is due.
50
22:09
Mbappé demands Courtois everything away! Hakimi forwards a play from Messi on the middle edge of the sixteen to the Frenchman. He shoots from a good 13 meters directly with the right instep on the half-left corner. Courtois dives at lightning speed and parries to the side.
49
22:06
Neither Mauricio Pochettino nor Carlo Ancelotti made any changes at the break.
46
22:03
Welcome back to the second round at Parc des Princes! The Rouge-et-Bleu managed a few fast-paced combinations against a player who had previously been largely withdrawn, but they appeared far too rarely in the positions ready for the final. The Madrilenians were only at eye level very late, but they survived their general apathy unscathed.

Kick-off 2nd half
45
21:48
Mid-term conclusion:
0-0 at half-time in the Champions League round of 16 first leg between Paris Saint-Germain FC and Real Madrid CF. The French had clear ball possession and field advantages right from the start, but initially they only managed to get Di María’s direct acceptance too high (6′). Really hot for the extremely passive Spaniards in the 19th minute when Mbappé failed at Courtois when there was a clear path. After that, the guest defended almost without ceasing, as he rarely kept the balls in his ranks for longer due to static positional play. However, since the Ancelotti team guarded their central defensive areas with great concentration and did not allow any further unconstrained shots, the Rouge-et-Bleu did not come up with any further compelling opportunities. In the last quarter of an hour, Blancos became a little more active without being able to get close to Donnarumma’s box. See you soon!

21:47
… Kroos’ cross finds its way to Casemiro, but he misses the near post with a header from eight meters.
45
21:46
Vinícius Júnior forces the first Reals corner kick from the left…
43
21:44
The trend of the last few minutes speaks for the Blancos, who are now consistently moving up when they have the ball. Mbappé therefore has a lot of space on the left wing in a counterattack. Shortly before the sixteen he gets stuck with Militão.
40
21:41
Yellow card for Marco Verratti (Paris Saint-Germain)
The Italian hits Casemiro in midfield with a tackle. His compatriot Orsato shows him the yellow card.
37
21:38
Yellow card for Casemiro (Real Madrid)
Casemiro is late against the matching Paredes and catches him with a kick in the hind legs. This offense will result in the first yellow card. The midfielder has to sit out the second leg as it is his third in the current competition.
36
21:37
Real slightly increases their share of ball possession and shifts the focus of the action towards the center line. However, Benzema and Co. are still waiting for their first noteworthy scene in attack.
33
21:33
Messi scurries down the half-right offensive corridor into the sixteen and gets a shot with the right inside instep from 14 meters under pressure. He rushes past the guest box far to the left.
31
21:32
… Asensio’s left instep execution is for the near side of the sixteen. In the first attempt, Kimpempe can clear with his head.
30
21:31
After a foul on Vinícius Júnior, Real are awarded a free kick on the left offensive side…
28
21:28
The ball continues to run smoothly through the ranks of the Rouge-et-Bleu, but they need a lot of patience in the narrow space on and in the opponent’s sixteen. Since almost everything goes on the left side with them, they can be calculated to a certain extent.
25
21:25
Mendes’ cross attempt from the left edge of the box develops into a direct shot at the short corner. She guards Courtois and easily gets the ball under her.
22
21:24
Mbappé wants to get to the baseline with a one-two with Mendes on the left wing, but is prevented from doing so by a kick from Militão. Referee Orsato overlooked this offense and denied PSG a free kick in a good position.
19
21:20
Mbappe with the big chance to 1:0! Messi’s volley lets the French appear on the left side of the sixteen behind the opposing defensive line. With Carvajal following closely, he shoots at the short corner from a good eight yards. Courtois prevented the impact with a strong reflex right hand.
16
21:18
For once, the Madrilenians moved up when the home side countered on their left flank. Mbappé can accept Mendes’ flat diagonal pass to the near edge of the sixteen, but is then slowed down by Carvajal.
13
21:15
… Messi’s execution is set too low and is headed out of harm’s way at the near post by Benzema.
12
21:14
The Blancos initially seem to accept that they are almost exclusively required to guard their own box. Mbappé finds Carvajal on the left again and takes out a corner kick…
9
21:10
With longer ball possession phases, the Pochettino selection determines what is happening. They also combine into the last third of the field from time to time, but have not yet put the great pressure on the Madrilenians’ defence.
6
21:07
The first chance belongs to Paris! Mbappé dribbles into the box on the deep left wing and plays past full-back Carvajal towards the penalty spot. Di María takes it off with his left foot, but his shot is set far too high due to the strong reserve.
4
21:05
The first moments of this top-class player are quite hectic, characterized by many changes of possession. When it comes to working against the ball, the guest is a little higher than the hosts.

PSG vs Real – Round one in the Parc des Princes is open!
20:58
The Champions League anthem sounds.
20:57
The teams have just entered the pitch in front of sold-out stands in the pouring rain.
20:42
Coach Carlo Ancelotti made three changes after the goalless draw at Villarreal CF for the Spaniards, who have not scored in their last four competitive games away from home and who have not only reached the round of 16 in two of the last three seasons. Mendy, Modrić and Benzema edge Marcelo, Valverde and Bale onto the bench.
20:36
On the side of the French, who recently celebrated four wins in a row in the national elite class but were eliminated from the Coup de France by a penalty shoot-out defeat against OGC Nice, coach Mauricio Pochettino is in contention compared to the 1-0 home win against the Stade FC made three personnel changes. Instead of Bernat (not in the squad), Simons and Draxler (both on the bench), Mendes, Danilo and Di Mariá start. Neymar sits on the bench.
20:27
Real Madrid CF only allowed themselves one slip in the first phase of the competition with a sensational home defeat by Champions League newcomers FK Sheriff (1-2); in Group D, which also included FC Internazionale Milano and FK Shakhtar Donetsk, Los Blancos, who lead the Primera División by four points after 24 rounds, won the remaining five games.
20:15
Paris Saint-Germain FC, still awaiting their first major international title after winning the 1996 European Cup Winners’ Cup, finished second in Group A behind Manchester City FC and ahead of RB Leipzig and Club Brugge KV. Similar to the domestic Ligue 1, which the Rouge-et-Bleu still leads confidently, they also allow themselves some fluctuations in the premier class in terms of play and draw their class primarily from their individual quality.
20:09
Ten weeks after the end of their group phase, the Champions League is back on Tuesday with the first two round of 16 first leg games from the winter break. Spread over five weeks, the eight participants in the next stage of the knockout phase will be determined, who will keep the chance of the big triumph in St. Petersburg at the end of May. One of the highlights of the last 16 is the clash between title contenders Paris Saint-Germain FC and Real Madrid CF.
20:00
Hello and welcome to the Champions League on Tuesday night! Two favorites, Paris Saint-Germain FC and Real Madrid CF, meet in the round of 16. The first leg at the Parc des Princes is scheduled to kick off at 9 p.m.
