Goalkeeper Paulo Gazzaniga's late howler gifted Paris St-Germain victory against Champions League debutants Girona.

Portuguese left-back Nuno Mendes drilled a low effort at Girona goalkeeper Paulo Gazzaniga from a tight angle, but the keeper made a major error and let the ball sneak through his hands.

The hosts looked as if they would be held to a draw by the Spanish side's steely and determined defensive performance before Gazzaniga’s error.

Girona, who are making their debut in Europe’s top competition after finishing third in La Liga last season, were composed as they sat back and mostly nullified PSG - who registered 26 shots without one of their players scoring.
