PSG knock out Liverpool on penalties at Antfield"},"content":{"rendered":"<p class=\"p1\">Paris Saint-Germain forced their Champions League last 16 tie against Liverpool to extra time after Ousmane Dembele\u2019s strike brought the French champions level overall at Anfield on Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Dembele tapped in after just 12 minutes to leave the tie level at 1-1 on aggregate as both sides missed several chances to set up a quarter-final meeting with Aston Villa or Club Brugge.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">PSG won 4-1 on penalties with Mohammed Salah scoring his club\u2019s first and only.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Vitinha, Ramos, and Dembele all converted theirs to give the away team victory.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">Darwin Nunez and Curtis Jones missed successive kicks before Desire Doue scored the last kick.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">After the tie ended 1-1 on aggregate, PSG goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma saved two spot kicks while the visitors converted all their efforts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">Extra-time and penalties<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">The additional half-hour began with two sights of goal for PSG, with Lucas Beraldo nudging a header a yard wide of the left post just two minutes in.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Fellow substitute Desire Doue then spun inside the box and whistled an effort even more narrowly the wrong side of the same bit of woodwork.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Liverpool ended the first period in the ascendancy and the introduction of Gakpo was followed after the change of ends by Harvey Elliott as Slot tried to find the way through.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Alisson and Dembele recommenced their duel when the Frenchman was teed up to the left of goal and aimed a side-footer that the Reds\u2019 No.1 scooped away.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Konate had to limp off as the clock showed 111 minutes played, Wataru Endo called on to take the defender\u2019s spot alongside Van Dijk at the back.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The aggregate deadlock continued and penalties would settle berth in the quarter-finals.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">PSG were on target with each of the four they attempted and Donnarumma\u2019s saves from Nunez and Jones meant it was the Ligue 1 side who moved forward to the next round.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Paris Saint-Germain forced their Champions League last 16 tie against Liverpool to extra time after
