Liverpool escaped the first leg in the Parc des Princes with victory thanks to Harvey Elliott’s 87th minute strike – their only shot on target in the game.
And the Premier League leaders looked to make their advantage count at Anfield on Tuesday night as they pressed for a second.
But it was PSG who broke the deadlock in the 12th minute when Ousmane Dembele took advantage of Ibrahim Konate’s error.
The goal sent visiting fans into jubilant celebrations.
And the party continued throughout the game as both sides looked to take the lead.
However, PSG fans also refused to relent when Liverpool won a corner.
