It was a fantastic match that electrified the Parc des Princes and will go down in Champions League history! French defending champion Paris Saint-Germain secured a one-goal lead, having been up 5-2 but having also feared the worst.

But the German 35-times champions showed their tenacity and talent to reduce the deficit to one.

The second leg in Munich next week promises a huge one.

To talk about what happened on that memorable Tuesday and what else is moving European football these days, host Stefan Grobe was joined by two other big football fans and consummate Brussels insiders: Connor Allen who manages government and external relations at a big company and Petros Fassoulas, secretary general of the European Movement International.

Both were full of praise of the quality of the French and Germans team that were on offense permanently. They also underlined the strong individual performances of the players with some of the highest incomes in European football.
