Doue inspires PSG comeback

Paris Saint-Germain recovered from a shambolic start as Desire Doue (right) inspired a comeback from two goals down to beat Monaco 3-2 in the principality in the first leg of their Champions League knockout phase playoff tie on Tuesday.

United States star Folarin Balogun opened the scoring after just 55 seconds and found the net again on 18 minutes to put Monaco in control against their French Ligue 1 rivals at the Stade Louis II.

Vitinha then missed a chance for the reigning European champions to reduce the deficit when he had a penalty saved and last year’s Ballon d’Or winner Ousmane Dembele came off injured before the half-hour mark, but his replacement Doue sparked the comeback.
