Former Barça midfielder Xavi's given his opinion on the game

He felt that PSG deserved more from the match at the Bernabeu

Xavi Hernández felt Paris Saint-Germain were favourites for their Champions League tie against Real Madrid and has explained he believes they were unlucky to lose the first leg 3-1 at the Santiago Bernabeu. 

"Madrid have something," he told So Foot. "Against them, you can never lose your chance, otherwise they will punish you, but the worst thing is that they hurt the opponent with nothing.

"A counterattack was enough to take the victory (...) You almost think it's an injustice that PSG lost by such a big margin because it was a game that should have ended 1-1, 2-2 or 2-1 for PSG."

The former Barcelona midfielder added: "It's inexplicable, Real Madrid didn't play, but still won...

"In this match, there were several phases, very different from each other, and there was a moment in which PSG dominated clearly.

"During those siege minutes in the Madrid area, it was at that precise moment that PSG should have scored the second."
