Despite facing boos and accusations of apathy due to his upcoming move to Real Madrid, Mbappé rose to the occasion, scoring the crucial goals that sent Barcelona crashing out of the competition.

The Camp Nou erupted in fury after the final whistle, with frustrated Barcelona fans throwing water bottles at the celebrating Mbappé. PSG manager Luis Enrique, who previously enjoyed treble-winning success with Barcelona, also faced jeers due to his history with Real Madrid. Despite claiming emotional difficulties facing his former club, Enrique’s tactics appeared effective.
