00:02Good evening. There has been a clamour to get inside the ground tonight for a much anticipated game.
00:09The roads outside of the stadium have been bumper to bumper with traffic.
00:14The car parks are full. There is a torrent of humankind making its way from the nearby station.
00:21And we expect every seat to be filled. An atmosphere of great expectation and excitement.
00:31Unmistakably, this is the Camp Nou staging a game in the way only the Camp Nou can.
00:38A mouth-watering game, this between two very high-quality sides. A treat for everybody here.
00:44Well, on the face of it, Peter, we would appear to have a high-caliber meeting with...
00:48All shooting chance! They've scored!
00:52It's hardly a surprise, is it? That's what we're here for.
00:55A player with this wonderful knack of being able to show up and deliver at important times.
01:02Yet, yet, another example.
01:05Great reactions in front of goal. He just saw what was on.
01:09Well, for me, that's just pure predatory brilliance.
01:12It's not so much the finish, but the way he read the situation, when nobody else was even alert to
01:17it.
01:17It's fantastic.
01:29I doubt very much that this was in the script.
01:35Keylor Navas catches it safely.
01:39Marquinhos.
01:42Neymar.
01:44Di Maria.
01:46Done very well to intervene.
01:50Ibrahimovic.
01:54Meunier.
01:57Idrissa Gueye.
01:58Forward it goes.
02:01Laxalt plays it forward.
02:07It's a loose ball.
02:10Marco Verratti.
02:13Bernat.
02:14Tries to get it forward quickly.
02:21Samu Castillejo brings the ball forward.
02:26Shakes to shoot.
02:28Lacking in accuracy.
02:30Well, it was hit with great power, Peter, but sadly, not great precision.
02:37That is a poor kick by the keeper.
02:40It intercepts it.
02:42Paris Saint-Germain have pushed both fullbacks into quite advanced positions here.
02:46Yeah, that's interesting.
02:48So, what are they attempting to do?
02:49Well, it's a bold attempt, in my opinion, to occupy the opposition in a way they're not expecting.
03:00Mbappé.
03:02Donnarumma can claim that.
03:10And he's away.
03:13That's one way of trying to make things happen.
03:15There's a few who could follow that example.
03:18Going for goal!
03:22Oh, and they really should have been made for pay.
03:29Bernat.
03:31That's needed to be better than that, and he knows it.
03:36That's been one straight back.
03:38Has a pop!
03:40It's broken loose!
03:47And it's Bernat.
03:49Di Maria.
03:53Bernier.
04:12Di Maria.
04:14Di Maria goes looking.
04:18And it's played forward.
04:27Bernat.
04:37Bernat.
04:40Good idea, just fully executed.
04:46Kimpembe.
04:50And it's Bernier.
04:53Has gone out.
05:02That's a hit!
05:04Fair attempt, just the wrong outcome.
05:07Good effort, very good effort.
05:09He would have at least wanted to make the keeper work, though.
05:22Marquinhos.
05:25Marco Verratti.
05:28Di Maria.
05:31Di Maria drives it forward.
05:38Doesn't get the pass he's looking for
05:47The Nats
05:48It has gone
05:50And the shots
05:52And again the keeper stands strong
06:06Big chance
06:11In towards the middle
06:13That's straight out wide
06:15Di Maria made a good run there
06:29For Nats
06:33Idrissa Gay
06:34Di Maria
06:40Marco Verratti
06:43Neymar
06:44Needed a better pass there
06:51Full kick
07:02Come back to the keeper
07:08For Nats
07:10Milan are trailing here with the first half almost done
07:15And it's Murnier
07:17It's come loose
07:22Well no question as to who's winning the battle in midfield at the moment
07:25Some very impressive pressing in place here
07:31Oh no that's not the ball he wanted
07:36For Nats
07:38Half time getting close now
07:42Murnier
07:44He's had that put on a plate
07:47Good challenge
07:49He just stood firm
07:50Neymar
07:52Mbappe
07:53Gets on the end of it
07:54And it's Icardi
08:15Neymar
08:19Hoist it forward
08:21Questions were asked
08:23But he's given the answers
08:27Di Maria
08:35And the half time whistle goes
08:37And there we are
08:38Off they go for half time
08:39The breakthrough did indeed come in the first half
08:42But there has only been that one goal
08:45It is very very tight
08:47Well they definitely won't be happy with that half
08:50They seem to lack a bit of desire
08:51Especially going forward
08:52It wouldn't surprise me to see a change or two
08:56We're already back on the way here
09:00Milan need to get the balance right to sort this out
09:03Ambition must be complemented by
09:05Just the right amount of caution
09:06And I think the more experienced players can oversee that
09:11Ibrahimovic
09:12Paris Saint-Germain really are
09:14Enduring a frustrating spell
09:16When it comes to
09:17Trying to move the ball around the midfield
09:19They lack the sharpness and urgency
09:23Marquinhos does well there
09:25Alert
09:27Di Maria
09:30No, no way through there
09:38That's a foul
09:39Simple decision for the referee
09:51Out of play for a goal kick
10:03Neymar drives it forward
10:06He could have been in
10:07Just needed a better final ball
10:09Ah, quality deserted them
10:11When they really needed it
10:17And the through ball is intercepted
10:22Milan have it back
10:23And they can go again
10:24And he's straight offside
10:36And he's going long
10:44Bit of an appeal
10:45But nothing doing
10:47But that
10:51But as he plays it forward
10:53Forward it goes
10:57It's a decent ball
10:59Hits one
11:05Di Maria
11:09Neymar
11:12Stole behind
11:13Thanks to that solitary strike
11:18That's not going to make it
11:26And here's Mauro Icardi
11:28Icardi spreads it towards the left
11:31And it's played forward
11:36Di Maria
11:37Tries to get it forward quickly
11:40He's looked long this time
11:42He's made sure that that won't get through
11:45Marco Verratti
11:49Bernat
11:50Plays it forward
11:52Mbappe
11:53Really was well marshalled there
11:55Because he was denied the opportunity
11:57To turn
12:01Oh real danger here
12:05But this is exactly the approach
12:07To have to take now
12:08Peter
12:08Hitting hope is just about
12:10The sum of it isn't it Jim
12:11Well there's no two ways about it
12:13This is what they have to do
12:20Play for a throw
12:29They're actually not getting too tight
12:31Which is interesting
12:32No
12:33It's probably cautionary
12:35Don't dive in
12:36Try to pinch it
12:37Or intercept
12:38So nobody can get in behind
12:41There's a long ball
12:46Meunier
12:46Drives it forward
12:49Neymar
12:52Yeah that's top defending
12:53And preventing him turning
12:54Which can open up many possibilities
12:59Needless to say
13:00He was expecting a better ball than that
13:03Oh he's put too much on it
13:15Now it's Icardi
13:17Neymar
13:18He gets past his man
13:20Your impression so far Jim
13:22Well the time has arrived
13:24To start taking risks
13:25They may well be happy
13:26Just to level this
13:37Icardi gets it back
13:43Neymar
13:48Hitch one
13:51Oh denied brilliantly
13:53Mbappe
13:54Sparked a tremendous stop there
13:56And I think it's fair to add
13:58He just wasn't expected
13:59Chance
14:01And yes it's there
14:05And there's the goal
14:07They've been looking for
14:13Well that defence
14:14Just wasn't expecting
14:15Their midfield to mess up
14:16Then so
14:17When they did
14:18They were caught completely cold
14:20By such a swift breakaway
14:21And such a well worked finish too
14:44Paris Saint-Germain
14:46Get themselves a two goal cushion
14:48That second goal
14:49Is such a polarising effect
14:51On prospective moods
14:52I mean
14:53One team are under
14:54More pressure now
14:55To get the next goal
14:56And the other
14:57Will fancy their chances
14:58Of turning two into three
15:01Forward it goes
15:05Meunier
15:13He's making good use of his strength there
15:16Just refuses to be outmuscled
15:19Regardless of the outcome
15:21It is good to see someone
15:22Running at the defence like that
15:25Well positioned to make that interception
15:37Mbappé gets flagged offside
15:51He's through the middle
15:55Chalanolu
16:14Mbappé has a pop
16:15And the ball's come out
16:21Just brushed off the ball there
16:23Cuts it out
16:26Loose ball
16:27Who's going to get there
16:31Has he picked him out
16:34Icardi
16:39Oh it's opened up nicely for him
16:42It's a very good battle there
16:44Terrific to watch
17:00Marquinhos
17:01Bernat
17:03Marco Verratti
17:22Samu Castillejo
17:28It's out for a goal pick
17:53Mbappé
17:55And he's there to cut it out
17:57Hoists it forward
18:00And there goes the final whistle
18:02Well this hurts the pain
18:05And then
18:05Worship
18:05We can do
18:05We can do
