Manchester United produced one of the great Champions League comebacks on Wednesday as they defeated Paris Saint-Germain 3-1 to stun the Parc des Princes and progress to the quarter-finals.No team in the history of the tournament had overturned a 2-0 or greater deficit going into an away leg but a brace from Romelu Lukaku and a controversial last-gasp penalty from Marcus Rashford sealed a glorious night for the Red Devils.
7Deportivo La Coruna 4-0 AC Milan (Deportivo win 5-4 on aggregate) – April 2004
No eyebrows were raised when Serie A giants Milan thumped Deportivo 4-1 in the first leg at San Siro in March, with superstars Kaka, Andriy Shevchenko and Andrea Pirlo living up to their star billing.But three goals in a remarkable first half at Riazor, sparked by Walter Pandiani’s opener, turned the tie around.The Rossoneri were hanging on until the 76th minute, when Fran sent Deportivo through.
7Monaco 3-1 Real Madrid (Monaco progress on away goals after 5-5 aggregate score) – April 2004
Real Madrid should have read the small print when they sent Fernando Morientes to Monaco on loan in 2003.Unfortunately, he scored against them in the first leg of this quarter-final tie, but they won 4-2.A healthy lead established, Los Blancos headed for Monte Carlo full of confidence, only for Morientes to once again stick the knife into his employers, with Ludovic Giuly’s brace sealing their fate.
7Manchester United 3-0 Olympiacos (Manchester United win 3-2 on aggregate) – March 2014
Patience with Sir Alex Ferguson’s successor David Moyes was already wearing thin among the Old Trafford faithful, and a 2-0 defeat to Greek side Olympiacos a month earlier did little to aid the Scot.But Robin van Persie gave Moyes a little longer in the hotseat by scoring a hat-trick in Manchester to steer United into the quarter-finals, a stage at which Bayern Munich proved too strong for them.
7Chelsea 2-0 Paris Saint-Germain (Chelsea progress on away goals after 3-3 aggregate score) – April 2014
In the same season Chelsea needed to overcome PSG’s 3-1 advantage from the first leg in Paris, where Eden Hazard had grabbed a crucial away goal.Back at Stamford Bridge, substitute Andre Schurrle gave the Blues hope with a first-half goal but nerves remained frayed until Demba Ba, also off the bench, scored the clincher in the 87th minute.
7Roma 3-0 Barcelona (Roma progress on away goals after a 4-4 aggregate score) – April 2018.
Roma looked dead and buried after a 4-1 defeat at the Nou Camp – courtesy of own goals from Daniele De Rossi and Kostas Manolas, as well as efforts from Gerard Pique and Luis Suarez.Edin Dzeko provided the Italians with a late away goal, however, and that proved crucial as the Giallorossi fought back in Rome.Dzeko scored early on before De Rossi’s penalty and Manolas completed the job on home soil.
7Barcelona 6-1 Paris Saint-Germain (Barcelona win 6-5 on aggregate) – March 2017
The Catalan giants became the first team in Champions League history to overturn a four-goal first-leg deficit, putting together an all-time European classic in the process.A 4-0 defeat in France briefly looked like a changing of the guard moment, with PSG lording it over the established giants, but the comeback only served to deepen the Barca mythology.With 88 minutes on the clock PSG still held a 5-3 lead on aggregate but a free-kick and penalty from Neymar, followed by Sergi Roberto’s last-gasp settler completed a heist for the ages.

Inside-forward Aarons had some defending to do in the 52nd minute, intercepting a vicious shot from Braithwaite. Rose beat Vestergaard to the interception, only to awkwardly knock the ball out for a Denmark throw-in. It soon became obvious why, as the Tottenham left-back went down signalling that something was wrong with his knee.
