Karim Benzema hat trick inspires Real Madrid comeback to knock PSG out of Champions League

Karim Benzema produced a memorable hat trick as Real Madrid completed a stunning comeback to dump Paris Saint-Germain out of the Champions League.

Kylian Mbappe's first-half strike put PSG in the driving seat with a 2-0 aggregate lead but Benzema scored three goals after the break as Madrid claimed a 3-2 aggregate victory.

The result continues PSG's heartbreak in the Champions League as they suffered another collapse from a winning position after losing to Barcelona and Manchester United in recent years.
