Champions League: Real Madrid Humiliated By Paris Saint-Germain Without Having Shot At Target

What a disastrous start to Champions League is it for Real Madrid, which suffered a 3-0 defeat to Paris Saint-Germain with Angel di Maria scoring a brace to secure the side's victory?

Despite the absence of Kylian Mbappe and Neymar Jr, who is serving a two-match ban over a dispute with the referee last season, Real were unable to effectively penetrate the hosts defensive. In the end, they had no shot at target throughout the game.

In the other hand, PSG did not really feel the absence of the duo as di Maria filled in the gap alongside Mauro Icardi and the Argentine opened the scoring poking in a pass from Juan Bernat from close range.

Just after Gareth Bale won a free-kick on the edge of the box but couldn't clip the ball in as it missed the goal by just an inch, the Argentine delivered a sensational finish of Idrissa Gueye's pass, smashing home a well-aimed left footed shot from the edge of the box for PSG's second goal.

A quick response to 2-0 lead from Bale was disallowed after the VAR ruled a ball-to-hand before taking a shot that beat Keylor Navas to the goal.

Awesome play from the French side in the injury saw Meunier one-two with di Maria and then with Bernat, who had the chance to make it a third but lay a pass to back to Thomas Meunier as Courtois was totally beaten and there goes the ball into the net from Meunier in 90th+1 minutes.

Never before have Real played a Champions League game without having a single shot at the target. That has not been recorded Opta began in 2003/04. In addition, it was the worst defeat in group stage match of the Champions League since 2004  in Bayern Munich 3-0 against Leverkusen.
