Η καρδιά της πρωταθλήτριας Ευρώπης «μίλησε» στο φινάλε και η Ρεάλ Μαδρίτης επικράτησε με 3-1 της Παρί Σεν Ζερμέν στο «Μπερναμπέου», στην πρώτη μεταξύ τους αναμέτρηση στους «16» του Champions League. Για 82 λεπτά οι Παριζιάνοι έβαζαν δύσκολα στους «μερένγκες», ωστόσο, η κλάση των παικτών του Ζιντάν και ιδιαίτερα του Κριστιάνο Ρονάλντο τους οδήγησε στη νίκη και ταυτόχρονα στο σημαντικό πλεονέκτημα που απόκτησαν ενόψει της ρεβάνς του «Παρκ ντε Πρενς» στις 6 Μαρτίου.
Η Παρί έβγαζε «φαρμακερές» αντεπιθέσεις στο πρώτο 45λεπτο και σε μία από αυτές μετά από σέντρα του Εμπαπέ και πάτημα της μπάλας από τον Νεϊμάρ, ο Ραμπιό από το σημείο του πέναλτι «εκτέλεσε» τον Νάβας (1-0).

Λίγο πριν τη λήξη του ημιχρόνου, όμως, κι ενώ νωρίτερα ο Αρεόλα είχε πει «όχι» σε τετ-α-τετ με τους Ρονάλντο και Μπενζεμά, οι «μερένγκες» κέρδισαν πέναλτι σε ανατροπή του Κρόος από τον Σέλσο (είχε κίτρινη κάρτα και δεν τιμωρήθηκε με δεύτερη).
Ο Ρονάλντο ισοφάρισε με το 100ό του γκολ στο Champions League από το 2009 όταν εντάχθηκε στο δυναμικό της «Βασίλισσας».
