Barcelona: Sergi Roberto thought he had dreamt scoring the match-winning goal, which sealed one of the most remarkable Champions League comebacks.

Barcelona wrote themselves into the record books with a stunning recovery against PSG on Wednesday night. "When I woke up, I wasn't sure if it hadn't all been a dream. I didn't see a thing until the ball went in. I could see that (Gerard) Pique hadn't reached it and I threw everything at it. It went in and we all went crazy," Roberto explained.

"We could feel that the Camp Nou buzzing. I simply have no words to explain how it felt," Roberto said.

"I had always dreamed of scoring a goal like that and being a lad from La Masia made it all the more special.

"It's incredible to do like this for my club. We gave it everything. Our attitude was spectacular. It's a night that will always be remembered," Roberto added.
