As usual, PSG will be at the rendezvous of the knockout stages of the Champions League. The Parisians, who needed a win against Club Brugge at home to make their ticket official, struggled (1-0) against an opponent they had squandered two weeks earlier, in Belgium (0-5) .
Intense since his arrival, Icardi allowed his people to provide the essential, finding the fault during the first act (1-0, 22nd). Navas, in the cages, also shone by stopping a penalty at the start of the last quarter of an hour (75th), to allow Parisians to retain their short advantage.
A short and difficult success that will still allow PSG to know a new European spring, but that does not mathematically seal their first place in Pool A, since Real Madrid, victorious Galatasaray at the end of a festival (6- 0), remains in contention despite his five points behind two days from the end.
Bayern and Juve in pain
Like the PSG, other great Europeans had the opportunity to validate their presence in the top 16 European, and they did not miss it. The task was not easy for Bayern Munich, who remained silent for more than an hour at home against Olympiakos. It took a Lewandowski goal (1-0, 69th) to clear the score, before Perisic secured the shot in the very end (2-0, 89th).
The evening was even more complicated to negotiate for Juventus, who only had to save the final seconds of a complicated duel on the lawn of Lokomotiv Moscow (1-2). Everything had started perfectly for the Bianconeri, who opened the scoring by Ramsey (0-1, 3rd), before bending on a share of Mirantchouk (1-1, 12th). Unable to force the decision, and even jostled by galvanized Russians, the Italian champion ended up finding the fault in the playoffs by Costa (1-2, 90th +3). A late achievement synonymous with qualification for the Italians.
