42: Dalot skips past a couple of tackles, striking fear into the PSG defence with every touch, and delivers a low cross that is deflected towards Buffon, who, wait for it, actually makes a save.
44: Here we go. Rashford launches a counter attack and Dalot loses possession with a stray pass and now PSG are away! Mbappe gets his head down and runs into traffic, if he lifts his head he would have seen Di Maria in all sorts of spcae. Good entertainment this.
PSG 1-2 Manchester United (3-2)
Manchester United got off to a dream start through Romelu Lukaku, his fifth in three games, after some suspect defending from Kehrer and Silva.
PSG, however, restored order through Benet, getting on the end of Mbappe's low cross. A string of chances passed the home side by and they were left feeling like they deserved more.
United were back in front on the night when Buffon spilt the ball in Lukaku's path and he added his second from a couple of yards.
Porto 1-1 Roma (2-3)
Roma arrived in Portugal with the intention of frustrating their hosts and not giving too much away as to ensure they left having progressed to the quarter-final. Everything was going to plan until Tiquinho Soares was on hand to put Porto ahead on the night and on aggregate.
Last season's semi-finalists were back into the game after De Rossi converted from the spot after Millitao fouled Perotti in the penalty area. The Roma captain was forced off 10 minutes later through injury, putting the Roma defence at a slightly greater risk.
One legendary Manchester United defender on a less legendary one
"He looks like a midfielder in a back four. It's a blessing he got injured and had to come off," Rio Ferdinand should really get off the fence with his analysis of Eric Bailly's miserable 35 minutes before being replaced.
