Unai Emery, head coach of Paris Saint-Germain FC issues instructions to his players on the touchline during the UEFA Champions League Round of 16 first leg Paris Saint-Germain v FC Barcelona game at the Parc des Princes stadium on February 14, 2017 in Paris, France. PSG won 4-0.

Can you name PSG’s XI from their 4-0 victory over Barcelona in 2017?

On 14 February, 2017, Paris Saint-Germain produced what was arguably their greatest performance of the modern era with a stunning 4-0 victory over Luis Enrique’s Barcelona.

Parisiens are unlikely to recall the second leg of their Champions League Round of 16 clash with quite the same level of fondness, given they were eliminated after a quite incredible 6-1 defeat at the Camp Nou.

But that first leg undoubtedly belonged to the Ligue 1 outfit, having produced a masterclass performance to blow away Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez, Neymar and co that night in Paris.

At the time, it was Barcelona’s joint-heaviest defeat in the competition, while PSG only became the sixth side to stick four goals past the Catalan outfit in Europe – after Milan, Dynamo Kyiv, Valencia, Chelsea and Bayern Munich before them.

“The game leaves a good taste in the mouth, but you have to be careful because we have 90 minutes to play,” PSG boss Unai Emery said that night, ominously foreshadowing the second leg.

“We have overcome them and we have made a very complete game. We have to try to maintain the level of concentration because their game is very varied. I’m very cautious with the next game. We have to try to continue in the same way.”

What we want to know is how well you remember that PSG side. Can you name every member of Emery’s starting XI that night?

If you’re after another challenge after this one, why not try name every player to score 5+ Champions League goals for PSG.
