French stars Paris Saint-Germain has defeated German side Bayer Leverkusen 4-0 in the first leg of their Champions League last-16 tie on Tuesday at the Bay Arena.
Volatile Swedish striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic took his goals' tally in this season's competition to 10 with a stunning strike from outside the penalty area and also converted a penalty after Blaise Matuidi had given the French side an early lead.
Yohan Cabaye added the fourth goal two minutes from time and Leverkusen, beaten 5-0 at home by Manchester United in the group stage, slumped to another heavy defeat.
The Bundesliga side's misery was increased when defender Emir Spahic was sent off in the 59th minute for a second yellow card, the report added.
