The miracle in Barcelona
If you’re waking up this morning thinking that what you watched take place at the Camp Nou last night was some mad dream then let me assure you that it was real life.
In one of the most incredible sporting comebacks ever, Barcelona scored three goals after the 88th minute to beat PSG 6-1 and, unbelievably, qualify for the quarter-finals of the Champions League on an aggregate scoreline of 6-5.

Keith Duggan managed to overcome the shock to write about what Liam Brady and the RTÉ lads made of it while Sid Lowe reports from the Camp Nou on one of the most incredible nights ever seen in European football.
