On this day in 2017, Barcelona achieved one of the greatest comebacks in Champions League history, overturning a 4-0 first-leg defeat to beat Paris Saint-Germain 6-1 at Camp Nou, winning 6-5 on aggregate. The match's scorers were Suarez (3'), Kurzawa (40' OG), Messi (50'), Cavani (62'), Neymar (88', 90+1'), and Roberto (90+5'). This historic match, known as La Remontada, is celebrated for Barcelona's resilience and tactical prowess. Additionally, Lionel Messi made history in 2012 by becoming the first player to score five goals in a Champions League game, a feat that has since been matched by two other players.
