In the 12th minute, PSG struck first through Ousmane Demb\u00e9l\u00e9, who finished into an empty net after a defensive lapse by Liverpool.<\/p>\n<p>Demb\u00e9l\u00e9 had a golden chance to double the lead in the 32nd minute but overhit his touch when through on goal. Liverpool thought they had equalized in the 53rd minute when Dominik Szoboszlai found the net, but the goal was ruled out for offside on Luis D\u00edaz earlier in the move.<\/p>\n<p>The Reds continued to push, with D\u00edaz forcing a brilliant save from Donnarumma in the 58th minute and Andy Robertson\u2019s cross leading to a Cuanza header off the post in the 79th. In stoppage time, Desiree Due narrowly missed the target with a dangerous shot.<\/p>\n<p>With neither team able to break the deadlock, the match went to extra time, where Alisson Becker made a stunning save to deny Demb\u00e9l\u00e9 in the 109th minute. The tie was ultimately decided by penalties, where PSG converted all their attempts while Donnarumma denied Darwin N\u00fa\u00f1ez and Curtis Jones, sealing a thrilling victory for the Parisians.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Paris Saint-Germain have advanced to the Champions League quarterfinals after eliminating Liverpool in a dramatic penalty shootout.
