Karim Benzema opened the scoring against PSG but it began with a brilliant bit of play from the Belgian.

Eden Hazard's nutmegged a referee during a sublime sole run against PSG in the Champions League last night.

Hazard's brilliant run which saw him beat two men in his own half was followed up by nutmegging the unknowing Artur Soares Dias.

He managed to feed the ball out to the right hand side leading up to Benzema's goal.

Fans on Twitter were in awe of the Belgian's skill.




The 28-year-old left the pitch injured in the second half but he certainly left his mark on the heavyweight clash.

Zinedine Zidane's side dominated the first half at the Bernabeu but there was VAR controversy towards the end of the half.

Los Blancos thought they were down to ten men after Thibaut Courtois was given his marching orders for taking down Mauro Icardi.

But instead of awarding a penalty and a red card, play was pulled back to the halfway line for an Idrissa Gueye foul on Marcelo.

Benzema doubled Madrid's lead in the 79th minute and seemed to seal the three points.

But PSG rallied and Kylian Mbappe halved the deficit with less than ten minute to go.

Pablo Sarabia popped up two minutes later to make the scores 2-2 ensuring PSG remain unbeaten in this season's competition.
