"The outstanding Maghnes Akliouche put the visitors ahead on the stoke of half-time, firing home after Mamadou Coulibaly had cushioned the ball into his path. Sébastien Pocognoli's men were excellent value for their lead but the match - and the tie - changed direction when Coulibaly was shown two yellow cards in the space of four minutes for fouls on Nuno Mendes and Achraf Hakimi, respectively."
"PSG drew level on the night two minutes later when Desire Doue's run and cross enabled Marquinhos to squeeze the ball home. It was 2-1 six minutes later, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia on hand to tap in after Philipp Kohn had failed to hold Hakimi's shot."
"Leading 5-2 from the first leg in Istanbul, the Turkish side seemed in control even after a Manuel Locatelli penalty reduced the arrears. Lloyd Kelly's sending off three minutes into the second half appeared to have ended the hosts' challenge but further strikes from Federico Gatti and Weston McKennie sent the tie to extra-time."
PSG progressed to the Champions League last 16 as title holders, building on their 3-2 first-leg victory over Monaco. Despite holding a significant advantage, PSG struggled for inspiration at the Parc des Princes. Monaco took the lead through Maghnes Akliouche before half-time, but the match shifted when Mamadou Coulibaly received two yellow cards within four minutes. PSG equalized through Marquinhos and took the lead via Kvaratskhelia. Monaco continued pressing and scored late through Jordan Teze, nearly forcing extra-time. In Turin, Galatasaray advanced after overcoming a spirited Juventus comeback, with the hosts scoring twice in the second half and extra-time despite being reduced to 10 men.
