The French champions were reduced to 10 men in the second leg after Angel Di Maria was shown a straight red card for a senseless stamp on Fernandinho on the touchline in the 69th minute.

PSG defender Presnel Kimpembe was fortunate to escape a red card for a reckless challenge on Gabriel Jesus.

Mahrez said: "It was a very good game. We didn't start good again. I don't think we had a very good first half but we scored a goal and then we were more comfortable.

"After the goal in the second half we played very good, we could have scored more, then they lost their nerves and started kicking us, they had a red card and it was more comfortable for us.

"I don't think it was our game plan to counter, they had to come at us - sometimes they lose the ball and they are good on the counter as well. We were happy with the second goal."
