Gianluigi Donnarumma saved efforts from Darwin Nunez and Curtis Jones, helping PSG progress while Liverpool fans were left fuming.
The controversy stemmed from a PSG supporter behind the goal who used a megaphone to blare siren noises and shout as Liverpool players stepped up for their spot-kicks.
Many Reds fans took to social media, questioning how the fan was allowed to do this, with one saying it was ‘enough to put anybody off their game’.
Surprisingly, stadium stewards wearing earmuffs did not intervene, further frustrating supporters.
