Good evening and welcome to Sports Mole's live text coverage of the Champions League last 16 second leg between Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester United at the Parc des Princes.

The hosts come into this match in complete control of the tie courtesy of their 2-0 victory in the first leg at Old Trafford last month - a position no side has ever recovered from in this competition.

However, United have won 13 of their 16 matches since Ole Gunnar Solskjaer took control in December and the Norwegian is looking to make more history tonight.

Make sure you don't miss a moment of the action courtesy of our minute-by-minute updates below.



10.07pm Right, that is all we have time for on this unforgettable night of Champions League football!

Thank you for joining Sports Mole for tonight's incredible contest as Manchester United produce an historic comeback to seal their place in the quarter-finals of the Champions League. I will leave you with our match report, and be sure to stick around for reaction too.

From me, though, it is goodbye for now!

10.05pm - Incredible. Just incredible. Manchester United do something which has never been done before in the history of this competition as they overturn a two-goal home defeat in the first leg to book their place in the quarter-finals - and they have done it away to one of the favourites for the competition too.

There was plenty of controversy, with United awarded a highly debatable 94th-minute penalty courtesy of VAR which saw them seal the win, but ultimately it is United who are celebrating one of their greatest ever European nights.

90+10 min - MANCHESTER UNITED QUALIFY FOR THE QUARTER-FINALS OF THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE!

90+10 min - FULL TIME: PARIS SAINT-GERMAIN 1-3 MANCHESTER UNITED (3-3 ON AGGREGATE, MAN UTD WIN ON AWAY GOALS)

90+9 min - YELLOW CARD! Shaw picks up a late, late yellow card, and PSG have a free kick. One last chance, surely...

90+7 min Still play goes on here as PSG look for a late goal to send them through! The drama here is incredible!

90+5 min - PSG SUB: Late change for PSG as Edinson Cavani replaces Alves.

90+4 min - UNBELIEVABLE SCENES! Rashford slams his penalty past Buffon to send United into the quarter-finals of the Champions League in the most dramatic circumstances!

90+4 min - GOAL! PSG 1-3 MANCHESTER UNITED (MARCUS RASHFORD, PEN) - MAN UTD LEAD ON AGGREGATE!

90+2 min - Oh my word, this is incredible! It is a marginal call and there didn't seem any complaints at the time it happened, but the referee awards a penalty for handball!

90+2 min - PENALTY TO MANCHESTER UNITED!

90 min - Hold on one moment! The referee is going to the VAR! There was a question over handball on Kimpembe which led to the corner! Could we see a dramatic late penalty here?!

89 min - Dalot drives forward and goes for goal from outside the area, but his effort takes a deflection and United have a late corner!

87 min - MAN UTD SUB: Another youngster for United as Mason Greenwood replaces Young.

85 min - Crazy defending from Bernat with just five minutes remaining! A cross arrives from the left flank and Bernat tries a mid-air backheel away with Dalot lurking behind him. Sure enough he misses the ball, but he gets away with it.

83 min - OFF THE POST! PSG are inches away from sealing their place in the quarter-finals, but they are denied by the woodwork! First Mbappe is played clean through on goal only to lose his footing when trying to take the ball around De Gea. He scrambles to keep it alive and eventually breaks to Bernat, who drills the rebound against the foot of the post.

81 min - MAN UTD SUB: Sure enough there is the change as Chong replaces Pereira.

79 min - United could be about to throw a wildcard into the equation here - Tahith Chong is warming up and is about to be introduced for the closing stages of this crucial match.

77 min - Less than 15 minutes remaining now and this match is still hanging in the balance! One goal could change everything!

75 min - YELLOW CARD! Paredes goes into the book for a sliding challenge from behind on Pereira, although it is perhaps a little harsh as he got the ball first.

74 min - Good defending from Silva at the other end this time as he takes the ball off Lukaku after the United goalscorer had been played in down the right channel.

72 min - Crucial defending from Young as he hooks the ball away from inside his own six-yard box after good work from Mbappe down the right channel.

70 min - PSG SUBS: Indeed, PSG make a double change as Leandro Paredes and Thomas Meunier replace Draxler and Kehrer.

69 min - Draxler swings a cross into the box which hits Lindelof, and the PSG man immediately gestures to the bench that his hamstring has gone. He will not be able to continue here.

68 min - There have been a couple of chances for United to break in the last couple of minutes, but on both occasions they have failed to make the most of it. Just over 20 minutes remaining now, so time is running out!

65 min - United are purely playing on the break now, which is understandable at this stage. However, the onus is on them to get another goal right now so PSG won't be taking any unnecessary risks.

63 min - PSG's pressure is growing now, although there hasn't been too much for De Gea to do in this second half so far. Sooner or later Man Utd will need to push for a third goal, but at the moment they are struggling to keep hold of it.

61 min - Really poor from Marquinhos as he goes down as if he has been elbowed in the face by McTominay, but there is nothing in it. A flash point ensues, but the referee calms things down without producing a card.

60 min - SAVE! Di Maria tries his luck with a curling effort from range, but he does not catch it right and De Gea is there to gather - a routine stop for the United keeper in the end.

58 min - UPDATE: Porto have regained the lead against Porto to make it 2-1 on the night, which means they are set for extra time there as things stand.

56 min - DISALLOWED GOAL! PSG think that they have an equaliser on the night as Mbappe flicks the ball through to Di Maria, who dinks a lovely finish over De Gea. It is a beautiful goal, but it will not count as the linesman's flag is correctly raised!

54 min - Apologies, we're having a few technical problems here! It remains 2-1 to United on the night, though, with the visitors needing just one more goal to progress as things stand.
