What is PSG's biggest ever Champions League defeat in history?

In one of the most famous matches in Champions League history, PSG lost 6-1 at Camp Nou.

In the 2016/17 campaign, PSG drew Barcelona in the last 16 and blew the Blaugrana away in the first leg with a comprehensive 4-0 home victory.

Barcelona, therefore, needed to score at least five goals in the second leg to progress, which eventually became six after Edinson Cavani found the back of the net at Camp Nou.

Eventually, PSG suffered a massive capitulation and lost 6-1, with Sergi Roberto scoring the dramatic tie winner late on after a fabulous pass from Neymar.
