Warren Zaire-Emery’s second-half equaliser ensured Kylian Mbappe and his Paris St-Germain team-mates will play in the UEFA Champions League round of 16 in February 2024 courtesy of a 1-1 draw at Group F leaders Borussia Dortmund.
After a breathless first half when Niklas Sule produced a brilliant clearance to keep Mbappe’s finish off the line, Karim Adeyemi slotted in to give BVB the lead from Niclas Fullkrug’s pass after PSG lost possession in a dangerous area.
Mbappe’s menacing run down the left was instrumental in Zaire-Emery’s leveller, the academy product finding space inside the box to fire in a crucial finish as Newcastle United spurned the chance to seize second place with a 2-1 home defeat to Milan.

Borussia Dortmund vs PSG lineups
