Paris Saint-Germain have secured their spot in the Champions League semi-finals for the first time in 25 years after a dramatic win over Atalanta.

They scored two late goals, including a stoppage-time winner from substitute Eric Choupo-Moting, to beat outsiders Atalanta 2-1 on Wednesday.

"When I came on, I thought to myself, 'We can't lose, we can't go home like that.' I was confident in myself, confident in the team and then the rest is the history of Paris," said Cameroon international Choupo-Moting.

"It was a crazy game, a tough game and opponents."

PSG will face either Atletico Madrid or RB Leipzig, who meet on Thursday, in their semi-final.
