With two goals in the second half, PSG will head to Spain with a comfortable lead.

The visitors from Spain were quick to get on the start of the game, with Andre Silva curling a shot wide of the post after escaping the Parisian defence.

However, the hosts were quick to respond and allowed Kylian Mbappe to break through the defence minutes later, but the Frenchman's low shot was saved by Alex Remiro's solid palm.

Andre Silva was a thorn in the side of PSG throughout the first half, with the striker almost heading a header into the corner in the 20th minute.

Just before half-time, Paris Saint-Germain dodged when Mikel Merino fired a stunning shot from the edge of the box that bounced off the crossbar.

The deadlock was finally broken when Kylian Mbappe slotted in at the back post and slotted home with ease to give PSG the lead they might have been lucky enough to have.

The Parisians added another goal after just over 10 minutes, with Bradley Bacola's goal igniting the enthusiasm of the home fans.
