THE
THIS SEASON’S UEFA COMPETITIONS HAVE GIVEN US PLENTY OF GREAT MATCHES, MEMORABLE MOMENTS, STUNNING GOALS, AND HUGE UPSETS. HERE, CIRO DI BRITA TAKES A LOOK AT SOME OF THE BEST FROM AROUND THE THREE TOURNAMENTS.

CHAMPIONS LEAGUE
NEWCASTLE PUMMEL PSG
Fabian Schaar’s screamer rounded off a memorable 4-1 victory for Newcastle United over Paris Saint-Germain in the group stage. The Geordie fans certainly enjoyed their first Champions League night at St James’ Park in almost 20 years and created a party atmosphere, but unfortunately, that would be the highlight of their campaign as they ultimately went out at the first hurdle.
SEVILLA STUNNED
HIGHLIGHT
Super sub Joselu sends Los Blancos to another final
ABOVE RIGHT:
PSV Eindhoven launched an amazing comeback to beat Sevilla 3-2 in the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan. Former Real Madrid legend Sergio Ramos opened the scoring for the Andalusians before Youssef En-Nesyri put them two up.
The Dutch side began their turnaround on 68 minutes after Lucas Ocampos was sent off and sealed a famous win through US international striker Pepi’s injury time strike.
PROVEDEL’S DELIGHT
REEL
One of the rarest moments in football is an injury-time goal scored by a goalkeeper who was sent forward in a desperate attempt to rescue a result. Lazio’s Ivan Provedel scored
a memorable header that any old-fashioned number nine would be proud of to earn a point against Atletico Madrid at the Stadio Olimpico on matchday one in Group E.
Niclas Fullkrug was key to Borussia Dortmund’s unexpected run to the final
