Ibrahimovic NOT the man for key Champions League games

Paris Saint-Germain crashed out of the competition to Manchester City - while the 34-year-old struggled once again in a key Champions League fixture
Paris Saint-Germain crashed out of the Champions League quarter-finals on Tuesday evening - and it was another key game in which Zlatan Ibrahimovic struggled to shine.


Kevin De Bruyne's neatly placed effort in the second half was enough to secure Manchester City's semi-final spot, but for the Sweden international, it was a frustrating night at the Etihad Stadium.

Ibrahimovic rarely tested Joe Hart - apart from two free-kicks - and although he did have the ball in the net, his strike from close range was rightly ruled out for offside.

The 34-year-old, who is out of contract at the end of the season, has often talked up his own ability, but as his record in key Champions League games show, he is some way behind both Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo...

And Ibrahimovic's record beyond the Champions League group stages is predictably dwarfed by both Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.
