Late Luis Suárez Header Gives Sporting 2-1 Win Over PSG in Lisbon

Defeat jeopardizes the champions' direct path to the last 16 under the league‑phase top‑eight format.

Overview

  • Colombian forward Luis Suárez scored both goals for Sporting, heading the winner in the 90th minute after opening the scoring in the 74th.
  • Khvicha Kvaratskhelia equalized for PSG in the 79th minute to briefly level the match.
  • VAR reviews disallowed three PSG goals, including a first‑half strike from Warren Zaire‑Emery.
  • PSG sit on 13 points and dropped to fifth provisionally after other results, with a home game against Newcastle in eight days key to avoiding a two‑legged playoff.
  • Coach Luis Enrique labeled the outcome "disappointing and unfair," highlighting PSG's dominance that failed to translate into goals.
