A 23 -year -old man who joined Chelsea de Manchester City two years ago, Palmer scored 18 goals this season.

PSG finished a short man after João Neves received a red card in the 84th minute for having shot Marc Cucurella with his hair. After a few last minutes, in a match with six yellow cards, the teams were to be separated while the PSG coach Luis Enrique and Donnarumma pushed João Pedro near the central circle.
