Game is over and the final score is Club Brugge 1-1 PSG. Paris St-Germain unleashed their all-star front three of Lionel Messi, Neymar and Kylian Mbappe but it was Ander Herrera who was the unlikely goal hero again.
2021/2022 UEFA Champions League
1-1
The former Manchester United midfielder could hardly believe it after sweeping home Mbappe's cross for the opening goal in the 15th minute.
It was his fourth goal in four appearances this season and made his the club's top scorer this season.
Hans Vanaken scored a deserved equaliser for the home side 12 minutes later.
Mauricio Pochettino will be concerned over the health of Kylian Mbappe on Wednesday evening after the forward was withdrawn against Club Brugge through injury after just 51 minutes of play.
The build-up before the game was all about the first glimpse of Lionel Messi, Neymar and Mbappe playing together from the start, but it didn't last anywhere close to a full match.
Mbappe suffered his injury as he collided with Nsoki and appeared to roll his right ankle.
He indicated to the bench that he needed to be taken off and as soon as he arrived back on the bench, ice was applied to his ankle.
