Meanwhile, nothing new up north...it is absolutely chucking it down.
But here's official confirmation from Manchester City regarding the abandonment. No news yet as to when the rematch will be scheduled for:
For one night and one night only, Man City's stadium has been renamed the "Wetihad"...to clarify, I definitely didn't come up with that.
1 min: GOAL! PSG score! Edison Cavani puts PSG ahead in the opening 30 seconds - what a start for the French side. With a neat first touch, Di Maria brought down a high ball in the middle before threading through Verratti down the right. Under pressure from Monreal, the winger whipped the ball across the face of the goal and into a very dangerous area. Ospina was left in no man's land as Cavani lost his marker to guide the ball into the far-left bottom corner with a cracking header. What a start.
12 min: Corner for PSG. It's whipped in from Di Maria on the right but he completely bypasses his team mates in the box and ends up directing the cross towards the goal itself. Opsina quickly scrambles backwards as the delivery curls towards the top left-corner to tip the ball over the bar and force another corner.
15 min: Arsenal's turn for a corner now. Cazorla curls it in from the right and Mustafi challenges to meet it...but he just can't quite make a clean enough connection. The ball glances off his head and runs away from the box.
32 min: Arsenal were building play well through the centre of the park until it reached Oxlade-Chamberlain. He was looking to find Ozil ahead of him with a simple 10-yard pass but he completely under-cooked it, thereby allowing Krychowiak to dart in and steal possession.
