FC Barcelona overturned a 4-0 first-leg deficit to claim a 6-5 aggregate win over Paris Saint-Germain to progress into the UEFA Champions League quarterfinals.

The Catalan giants took the lead inside two minutes, as Luis Suarez rose well to head home from six-yards out.

Barcelona were in full control and nearly doubled their lead in the 17th minute but Neymar's effort from 25-yards out sailed inches wide of Kelvin Trapp's upright.

PSG, meanwhile, were quiet happy to sit back and defend throughout the first half, with the hope of catching the home side on the break.

The Catalan giants doubled their lead in the 39th minute as PSG's Layvin Kurzawa deflected the ball into his own net, after some good work by Andres Iniesta.

The score remained to the home side at the break.

Barcelona were then awarded a penalty in the 49th minute when Neymar was brought down in the box. Lionel Messi stepped up to convert the spot-kick, 3-0.

PSG nearly pulled a goal back in the 51st minute as Thomas Munier picked out Edinson Cavani, who hit the upright from close range.

The visitors eventually pulled a goal back in the 61st minute when Cavani volleyed home a superb effort into the top corner, 3-1.

Barcelona continued to dominate possession, as they needed three goals to progress to the next round, although the PSG defence held firm.

Unai Emery opted for a defensive change for the final stages as Julian Draxler made way for Ivory Coast star, Serge Aurier.

Neymar bagged Barcelona's fourth goal on the night in the 87th minute with a fine free-kick to make it 4-5 on aggregate.

The hosts were then awarded a penalty two minutes later when Marquinhos brought down Suarez. Neymar stepped up to convert the spot-kick to make it 5-1 on the night and 5-5 on aggregate.

The Catalan giants then secured the all important sixth goal on the night, as Sergi Roberto poked home from close range to seal their spot in the quarterfinals.
