Sporting CP stuns PSG with last-gasp winner
Luis Suarez scored a brace to secure Sporting CP a dramatic 2-1 win over reigning champion Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League.
PSG looked like it had salvaged a point after Khvicha Kvaratskhelia's superb strike, but instead, its hopes of a top-eight finish took a blow.
The visitor made a strong start at the Estadio Jose Alvalade as Vitinha, Nuno Mendes and Senny Mayulu forced Rui Silva into early saves.
PSG thought it had opened the scoring just past the half-hour mark when Fabian Ruiz planted an unmarked header past the stranded Silva, but the goal was overturned following a VAR review for a foul by Mayulu in the build-up.
The French giant endured similar frustration 10 minutes later; Mendes tapped home after Warren Zaire-Emery's cross was not dealt with, but Ousmane Dembele was adjudged to have fouled Silva prior to the goal.
Sporting wasted chances on either side of half-time before a third PSG goal was overruled, with Dembele this time straying offside before he nodded in Desire Doue's delivery.
Against the run of play, the host took the lead in the 74th minute, with Suarez profiting from a fortuitous deflection. Geny Catamo's strike hit Georgios Vagiannidis but fell straight to the Colombian, who slotted home.
Kvaratskhelia then produced a magic moment five minutes later, cutting inside from the left to bend a wonderful effort into the far-top corner.
But it would count for nothing in the end as Suarez sent the stadium into raptures when he nodded in the rebound of Trincao's saved effort in the 90th minute, sealing all three points.
